that’s got to be an ouchy for USC. Looks like your going to have to go to your second string running backs for help.
Adam572,
You don’t pay much attention to USC football do you?
USCDPT1 I’m just going with what the posts are saying thank you very much.
FYI, Tyler is the 5th string RB.
The 1st through 4th string RB’s are all healthy.
Some people just can’t count that high.
