ANYONE good?
Shaun Carney rushed for 637 yards @ 4.7 YPC last year. Against BYU: 9 rushes for 5 yards.
Dennis Dixon rushed for 583 yards @ 5.6 YPC last year, following his bowl appearance, on a bum knee. He didn't rush 100 yards against BYU.
You're overstating your case here. Yes, Locker is easily the most talented running QB we've faced in the last two years. Yes, he's going to gain some yards against us. I doubt he rushes for 100+ yards, as BYU's truly not shown a tendency to give up those kind of yards to ANYONE in recent years.
Also, FWIW, our 'conservative 3-man rush' is misleading as well. We rush at least one LB on most downs.
