RedDenver Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 <snip> Cross is possibly the 4th best back on our team this season. Or possibly the 2nd best back. Quote Link to comment

URSS Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 I would like to see more I Formation sets with Cross and Abdullah in the backfield. Quote Link to comment
Landlord Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Cross would get more carries if he was given a defined role. A guy that big and strong should be the short yardage back. Line him up behind a fullback and pound it down their freaking throat. Quit treating him like AA and asking him to run outside the tackles. Can we just ... Quote Link to comment
huskered17 Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Cross should always be the first option, in short yardage. Not saying he has to always get the carry but,..... GBR!!! Quote Link to comment

If we were a pro style offense maybe He was 2nd last year while in NU's offense. Seems very plausible he will be 2nd again this year. Quote Link to comment

RedDenver Posted March 6, 2014 Share Posted March 6, 2014 Newby > Cross Based on what? Here's the rushing stats: RUSHING GP-GS Att Gain Loss Net Avg TD Long Avg/G ------------------------------------------------------------------- Abdullah, Ameer 13-13 281 1722 32 1690 6.0 9 62 130.0 Cross, Imani 13-0 85 458 11 447 5.3 10 51 34.4 Newby, Terrell 13-0 54 302 4 298 5.5 2 23 22.9 Cross leads Newby in every category except ypc (5.5 vs 5.3 is negligible). Newby and Cross had 3 fumbles apiece (thanks to Warrior10). I couldn't find fumbles, so Newby could have less, but I doubt it. EDIT: Sorry about the formatting. It looked fine in the preview.

Newby and Cross had the same amount, 3 a piece. I had Ameer's number of 5 fumbles mixed up with Cross. Quote Link to comment
