Why didn't Coleman have 25 carries vs. WSU?

I don't think we're alone. I definitely the past two years have wondered why teams would stop running the ball against UW when it was working so well and felt like it saved us. I know it's easier to defend the run when you always know it's coming but I don't know if it is it's only like 75% of the time.

Gaskin almost never carried 20 times in a game. Usually he topped out at around 18. Coleman or Ahmed seemed to always take 5-12 carries in any given game. Pete was a big “keep em fresh” coach. Sark on the other hand …

Right now, the bigger problem is not how many Coleman carries, but we are unable to punch the ball in at red zone. As the recent podcast pointed out, Coleman also seems to have issues inside red zone.

Davis was good at getting into the end zone in 2022 but I wouldn't be surprised if Coleman woudl get pissed if he carries the ball down to the 10 and then doesn't get TDs.

Davis, Coleman, and Mohammed should touch the ball 3 out of 4 plays in the Red Zone.
It's actually crazy to say, but the offensive line everyone thought would suck actually looks…good? Credit to Fisch and Carroll there.
It could all go up in flames on Saturday though. Have to win this game.

Big challenges ahead for the OL in the next two weeks. McCree definitely looks like the guy at LT instead of Faasolo who reminded me of early Buelow just too gigantic to move well. I think Hatchett is the answer at center and not the Portland State guy but they seem to continue limiting him.

So Coleman sounds like hes nursing an injury? Fisch said he was out against Rutgers getting tended to at one point. I wonder if its a nagging thing that is keeping his carries down

He took himself out and everyone here too busy raging to actually watch the game never noticed.
