Lopez 13 carries for 59 yards
Iamaleava 13 carries for 57
The bigger difference is that Lopez had a (much?) better passing game. 16/27 for 225 and a TD vs.
14/22 for 151 and an INT.
And, Wake's non-qb's ran for about 125 on 28 carries. (this includes a receiver w/ a 44 yard rush)
Our RB's ran for just about 160 on 30 carries.
I don't know if any of that means anything, other than ya, Wake's QB had a good running day.
I still say I'd like to see Nico throw the ball away rather than tuck it on first or second down. I like the called runs. With called runs and sacks, 6 or 7 carries would be good with me.
