I'm starting to believe we just might win six.

Lol, where have you been, man?

Never heard of angles before?

I'll watch it again, but it looked like the backer turned around and still caught him.

Malone is coming along well and made a couple plays tonight. I expect more in the near future. It's a little easier for a RB to adjust to the college game as long as he understands pass protection. Jalen does a very good job pass protecting for a freshman. Usually takes a WR a little longer to adjust because they've got by for so long on natural ability, and when they get to the college level, they have to make sure they are running crisp routes and get the timing down with a new QB. Remember the progress DaRick made between his Freshman and Sophmore years? You could see the potential his first year, but it didn't translate onto the field unto his Sophmore season. I'm hoping Malone transitions a little quicker in his development and surely to God he's smarter than DaRick was about his off the field lifestyle.

Let's hope so... You know what magnolia can do to a kid. Sarc, in case nobody knows.

Hurd can definitely house one.

Immediately after that play I knew there would be someone post your original comment. Kind of surprised it took me this long to see it.

I'll have to re-watch it but in my memory he got ran down in what should've been a TD run. Kudos for him breaking off that run to begin with but people say HR potential and I haven't seen a HR yet.

OU player had the angle on him on that long run, and OU has some pretty good speed on the defensive side of the ball too.

Hurd is really fast but doesn't look as fast as he is because of his height. May not quite have the speed of Cordarelle Patterson, but their running styles are similar in the open field. For what ever reason, smaller guys look faster on the field.

He ran downhill, eyes forward and kept his feet moving, the best RBs aren't the fastest, he has great vision and quick decision making. Quality back in my opinion. Can't wait to see him against UF and USC !

I think he's going to be great- but that was a bummer.
