[laker20]

Have you ever thought of maybe rock ran up the middle due to lack of speed to get outside and knowing Knox had the outside covered with more speed than rock did.

Rock will have no problem in this game. They can run it up the middle, to the outside, heck, they can run it backwards if they want to........they will not be challenged at any point.

As far as Rock's game against Knox, here's some stats that are interesting:

Rock rushing: vs Knox 214, vs Russell Co 206 (13 in OT)
Rock passing: vs Knox 105, vs Russell Co 134
Total Offense: vs Knox 319, vs Russell Co 330 (13 in OT)
Points Scored: vs Knox 14, vs Russell Co 29 (8 In OT)

So, in regulation the Lakers allowed 2 less yards than Knox did. Rock's loss to Knox wasn't so much the offense, it was field position and poor pass coverage.
