Bijan Robinson, Running Back
The best running back on the team this year has been Bijan Robinson, who has essentially been the starter for only half of the season. Following the Oklahoma game, Robinson has been the guy at running back. Partly due to injuries to Roschon Johnson and Keaontay Ingram forcing the issue. Head coach Tom Herman didn’t want to “overload” the freshman but Bijan has proven that he is up to the task.

In a game where the offense is missing their top receiving target in Brennan Eagles, might be best to give the rock to your best playmaker. Robinson leads the team in rushing, yards from scrimmage, yards after contact on rush attempts, and yards after the catch. Robinson provides the tough runs and the explosive plays from the backfield.
It is quite simple for Tom Herman and Mike Yurcich, ‘Feed the Freshman.’
