An interesting stat that I saw on anygivensaturday is that SHSU has only faced one rb with 700 yards or more. They haven't seen backs anywhere near as productive as either Maysonet (1500) or Jackolski (1300) . I think they're going to be the most athletic defense we've seen all year but our offense should have a considerable size advantage over their D.

Just because SHSU only faced on RB that had over 700 yds doesnt mean a thing.  Over half the teams in the SLC throw the ball a lot too.  Tx State has some very good RB's and they got shut down.  The thing about the SHSU defense is that their base defense already has 6-7 guys crowding the line of scrimmage and they are able to do that because the secondary plays incredible man defense.  Not to mention, they constantly rotate players in and out .  Not saying SB running backs wont get some yards, but I promise you this defense will be ready for the run attack.
