Not just the IB, but over the course of the entire season. Stuff adds up. We could have rested KJ in games and let others carry the load, but as stated above, Gus played favorites. Sort of a chicken and the egg scenario. Players didn't get the reps they wanted, acted up, stopped working as hard in practice because - why bother, and then Gus 'punished' them by not giving them reps. So they acted up more... Just and outside opinion.

Sandwiched between Georgia and Alabama we played some shite school and we only held maybe a TD lead at the half. It took 23 KJ carries just to stretch the lead out. That wasn’t great timing.

As for favoritism I see no evidence that it affected the RB position that season. Petway was supposed to have been a key cog. Kam Martin wasn’t worth a damn. Once Pettway left we had nobody.
