...have been quite the pleasant surprise lately.
It's quite nice to have a stable of three legitimate ACC running backs to cycle through, and who complement each other quite well - Snead the explosive, speed guy, Duncan the between-the-tackles bruiser, and Thompson as an experienced, all-around back. Each has looked like our best runner at times, and I think Roper has actually done a pretty good job of balancing the workload effectively. Seems like the contrasting styles help keep defenses on their toes a little bit.
O-line's been doing quite well, too, although it would be nice if any of our blocking TEs were healthy (Reeves has been doing pretty well, Blakeney not so much). Hopefully it all holds up against the next tier of opponents...
