If Murray is uable to play tomorrow, who should get the most snaps? Calhoun has been in the system longer and should have a better grasp of the system. I always heard that he was a shifty back with break away speed. He appears to me to be more of a power back... a straight forward runner. Now Miller is a true freshman... and seems to be a small back. But man that kid has impressed me the little time he has been on the field. He appears to be more of a game changer if he finds the open field.

Here are their stats:

J. Miller- 17 attempts for a net of 128yrds, with an avg 7.5yrds a carry. Longest run is 36yrds.

J. Calhoun- 17 attempts for a net of 61yrds, with an avg of 3.6yrds a carry. Longest run is 13yrds.

Hell, I don't know if Murray is even out for the game. What do you guys think?

He won't see the field if Murray is healthy. I do think Calhoun will touch the ball first behind Brown. But I also think Miller will see some action.

I'm anxious to see both of them. Miller seems more polished already and just has that "knack" to find daylight. I have a feeling Calhoun is one of those backs that needs a heavy workload to get going. He has brutish power and would be hell on a tiring defense in the 2nd half.

I'd like to see what they can do. I wouldn't say that I have not been impressed with them so far; I just haven't seen enough from them that has been impressive...which of course is only fair because they've only had mop up time so far.

Whoever Stoops decides to put in there today I hope the line can start blocking.
