[QUOTE="lv20gt, post: 757270, member: 2299"] Gibbs is our leader now. Sims is sitting at 69 carries for 275 (4.0 ypc). FWIW the clemson game really hurts with the 13 carries for minus 23. For comparison though Graham last year had 99 carries for 290 yards (2.9). They can both run but have different styles. Graham is probably better with quick cuts and moves, like spin, with a bit more burst. Sims is more of a long strider who sets defenders up to have less of a good shot on him and based on my eye test actually has more top end speed although neither has had a real long run to compare. I don't really view either as being overly notable physical runners. Graham looks like the better runner if you're doing a lot of called runs or plays where him running is a real designed part of the play (option plays) where he's likely to need to put a move or two to fight for some yards. Sims looks like the better runner to take advantage of the defense vacating an area or getting out of position and you want your QB to get as many yards as possible without much risk. I think both are obviously able to do the other as well. [/QUOTE]
