Marcus Lattimore

[WarDamn2010 183]

Looks like steve spurrier finally learned how to run the ball. Also, it appears since he figured out how to do that, South Carolina may be pretty good this year. I'm pretty impressed with Lattimore and S Car.

Lattimore looks fine to me, not great, but their line does not impress me.

On the other hand, Lattimore has 14 carries.  No other back has more than 1.

I was hoping he would fumble

I'm with you BayBay, we will see what they look like against a real defense.

Lattimore is a powerful runner.  The jury is still out on south carolina for me they need to play a better defensive team.  We'll see when they play Georgia.

I thought that I heard them say Lattimore was 230 lbs.  He did not look that big.  But I thought that he looked like he  was hitting the holes and moving pretty well.  Can't wait to see the Number 1 RB recruit this weekend.

I heard them say that too. There's no way he's 230

[WarDamn2010 183]

He's pretty tall isn't he? He didn't look that big but Dyer is 215 so it's possible I guess, but I don't see it either.

Seriously? The kid did nothing but handle himself with class during his whole recruitment.

For a teams running game to pose a serious threat, they need more than 1 back.  I gotta hand it to them though.  They looked pretty balanced.  Much better than last year.

Didnt necessarily say I was proud for hoping

I was impressed by him myself. I thought he did pretty good for his first game ever, even if it was against a bad defense. I hope he does well, except against Auburn of course. IMHO he was pushed into bad situation.

I hope he fumbles in three weeks and two days, and I will not feel bad when and if he does, I will be cheering.

I want to see Bynes crush him, personally.

I, personally, was happy for Garcia.  I'm not a fan of ole ball coach, even though I do find him more entertaining as he gets older.  He's put alot of hell on Garcia's plate and it was good to finally see him have a descent ball game.  USCe looked much better than I expected.  I'll be very interested to see their first SEC game.

[LakeBum 187]

For a true freshman, ML looked smooth to me!!  I will always wonder what it would have been like to have him and MD together in a backfield.....oh well, I am very happy we got MD.

WDE!

[stealthyfan 124]

Schazam!

Garcia looked like a QB for the first time - ever!

Don't think I saw the visor go once this game . . .  .

I agree.  I was VERY impressed with Lattimore.  As I said when it happened, I don't think the decision to go to S. Carolina was his, but I'm glad to see he's making the best of it.

Man, if you listened to the announcers, you may as well give the NC trophy to USCe now!  They kept heaping praise on Garcia, talking about how awesome he was, and how he was making great decisions and throwing the ball so well.  I didn't watch the entire game, but saw most of it, and I did not agree with their praise.  Granted, he had a good game, but I kept noticing that every ball he threw to Alshon Jeffrey and his other receivers were very high.  Against So. Miss, that will work, but against a tough SEC defense, that is going to get one of them hurt.  When you string out your best receiver, right over the middle of the field, someone is going to level him and he may not get back up.  Maybe it was just first game nerves.

I did think that USCe looked better than I thought they would.  Lattimore is definitely for real, and runs like a beast.

Did y'all hear the announcers say Lattimore ran a sub 4.2 at one of the camps. Holy wow.

It sucks for him that Spurrier only let him get 52 yards, but at least he made two touchdowns.

While the young man is only a true frosh and will certainly get better (unless of course he is another Alley Broussard or Justin Vincent), 15 carries for 54 and a 3.6 ypc average isn't to great of numbers (especially against a USM defense). Jmo, but I think Marcus is in for a long year running behind that USCe O-line. Does it mean I don't think he can be good? No. Of course not. However, I'm not drooling over him just yet.
