SDS’s Brad Crawford: Running backs underrated element of USC offense
Between now and the season-opener against North Carolina on Sept. 3, we will ask 50 people: “What do you think about the Gamecocks in 2015?” We’re counting down the days until kickoff. Today’s panelist is Brad Crawford, Saturday Down South writer:
“The most underrated element on the South Carolina offense is its 1-2 punch at running back — Brandon Wilds and David Williams. If Spurrier took a stubborn approach and focused on eating up yards on the ground this fall, the pair could combine for 1,600 yards and 20 touchdowns. But we know he wants to air it out. Keep an eye on tight ends Jerell Adams and Kevin Crosby as well. Both were excellent this spring and Spurrier is putting a heavier influence on these big targets this season.”
