Zeke Elliot--2500 Yards

  • Footwedge
    Could happen.

    Pro...gained almost 700 yards in 3 post season games against elite teams with good defenses. Bucks return 4 of 5 starting linemen, 2 of which are projected first round draft picks. Ohio State has an incredibly weak schedule this season.

    Con...Injuries... like shit...happens. Urban says Samuel is too good not to play some. Wilson and Marshall will need touches too. Also, hard to keep the starters in when leading 42 to 3 at halftime.

    Zeke is a beast an he definitely could pull down the Heisman. Most don't know this but Elliot is the fastest guy on the team...faster than Marshall, faster than Wilson.

    If the touches were there I think he actually could come close but there's to many weapons in the offense

    2,500? EZ.

    With the weapons OSU has, something has gone wrong if Zeke gets 2500 yards

    Only 3 guys have ever done it. There is no way Zeke becomes the 4th.

    I say he will. Truly astounding given the Buckeye record is 1900 and change set by Eddie George. Urban will do what he can to have one of his players win the Heisman.

    Not a chance on him getting 2500 yards.

    If(when) the buckeyes make the championship game that'd give us 15 games played. He'd need to average 166.7 yards per game to reach that number. Almost impossible(improbable) when you consider we will be throwing the ball quite a bit.

    Could he? Sure...but why? Why would we want him even in the game the second half against teams like Hawaii? Get your 100 per game Zeke then let others mop up and you win the Heisman by a landslide.

    Are we sure Footwedge can count to 2500?

    It will be hard for Zeke to rush for 2500 while 12 Gauge is throwing for 4500. So it'll probably be more like 1800.

    No. As stated above..too many weapons and mouths to feed. Plus, how many 2nd half carries is he going to get early on? I'm betting he'll be on the sidelines watching Samuel and Dunn a lot come 3rd/4th quarter.

    I see him playing about 26-27 quarters in the first ten games.
