QUOTE TO NOTE: “I’ve got ultimate confidence in all those backs. I mean if they need to carry it 30, they could each do it. I don’t know if they could do it for a whole year, but they could do it for a game. That’s why you have the backs you have. That’s why you have the ability to use different backs.” — Kirby Smart on his running backs
