Before the season started, I was sitting around jamming with Miami Steve and we got to talking about this years Hawkeyes.
I said that if we had a 1,000 yard rusher that we would win the Big 10. Stevie shook his head like he always does at me, and said, "I don't know Boss Man, can we practice Ramrod one more time?"
Now, Robinson has 629 yards rushing with 4 games left, and Wegher who split time with him for a bit has 321. No doubt together they will eclipse 1,000 yards this week and will likely end up around 1,300 cumulatively.
Despite Wegher's struggles the past few weeks, you have to feel like he is at least good enough to make the defense respect the run.
The rest of this season lies on the offensive line making holes big enough for Wegher to be a factor. If they can do that, there will be no falloff from the Robinson loss.
Don't forget, Wegher has gained 100 yards this season in a game too.
Make the D respect the run enough that the play action pass is effective and the Hawks will continue to win.
Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go kick my own *** for releasing that last album... Roy was right when he asked if we should call the record Working on a Fart instead?
