Message: [QUOTE="huskymedic, post: 5081227, member: 549"] [MEDIA=twitter]1837947328910545190[/MEDIA] -> UConn is an outside zone running team, which requires patience as blocks are picked up and a hole is opened for some running room. “And then you put your foot in the ground and you get vertical,” Mora said. “The best outside zone teams are the teams that have backs who can do that. They can be patient at the line of scrimmage, they understand where the hole is going to open up and when it does, they put their foot in the ground and get vertical.” The Huskies have four different running backs who’ve shown they can effectively move the ball <- -> Last week, it was Norwalk native Cam Edwards who was called on to be the workhorse against Duke. Edwards ran 21 times for 106 yards and a touchdown, earning some rest as the team returned home, and was tapped for only seven carries and 30 yards Saturday. Victor Rosa, who had surgery on a broken finger on Sept. 11, stood on the sideline without pads for the second week in a row. Before the year, running backs coach Antonio Wilcox made sure his talented group understood that sometimes it might just be someone else’s day. <- [/QUOTE]
