If he surpasses 250 yards, it's because the game is close.Can we hold him to 250 yds and 2 touchdowns?
Sure.Can we hold him to 250 yds and 2 touchdowns?
Oregon State came into the game in fourth place for running yards per game on offense! The game plan off Hawaii controlled Boise State until later in the second half.We haven't faced any backs like Jeanty this year. But we have done a good job at limiting opposing teams running games. Syracuse had a pretty solid game with 33 carries for 137 yards and 3 TD's.
This past game against OSU, their QB broke one long run for 71 yards, and despite that, they only ran for a total of 137 yards, so only 66 yards aside from that one run.
I think we'll do fairly well against Jeanty, but us focusing on him will definitely open up the passing game and play action, so our secondary is going be critical for us this game.
We’ve done well against the run, even last game. Short gains aside from 1 or 2.
And Jeanty didn’t pulverize a lesser defense last year … what he get, 150 yards against us? I think around 20 carries. So good YPC, but didn’t kill us. The quarterback did, though.
Watching him run, he’s a really good runner. I really like the way he hits the holes and can bounce from mediocre tackles.
But he still scares me a bit. He’s that good. And you can hold him for 35 yards on 10 carries, the next thing you know, he’s got 125 yards on 14 carries.
Saw somewhere on Twitter that o/u opened at 195 and is down to like 185 or something. So at least the books think he’ll get less than that, yardage wise anyway.Can we hold him to 250 yds and 2 touchdowns?
They may be, probably are, but we were better than Syracuse player for player and they rose to the challenge and took advantage of opportunities (our mistakes) and pulled out the win. We must play smart, no personal fouls for 15, no targeting calls, no roughing the passer when they throw an incomplete pass on 3rd and long, no false starts making a 3rd & 3 a 3rd & 8.The game will. Come down to this.
Jeanty will get his yards.
When UNLV has Boise in 3rd and +7 yards you have to get off the field. Can't give up the QB scramble for 8 yards. Can't let the TE find a soft spot in a zone at the sticks. Can't miss a tackle on a swing pass that goes for nine.
Absolutely have to get off the field in those situations.
Any turnovers must be 7s not 3s.
I'm still of the opinion player for player Boise is still better than us.
