I like this back, he's like a instant 3.5 yards per play.
seen him fumble today, he cleans that up and the sky's the limit.
he doesn't dance, just gains yards and moves the chain.

He's definitely a guy to lay off n when you've worn out a team. Probably should be #2 behind Bryant, and I love Wilbons shiftiness.

Go back and watch, while he has improved, it is still an adventure.

I don't know if he's improved that much. He did a decent job in that game too. The OL play in that game was just horrible.

Wilbon falls down when he see's his shadow, and loses a yard. Ozigbo's the guy!

I like Ozigbo because he plays fast. He doesn't pussyfoot around like Wilbon does. He hits the hole aggressively and accelerates through it, whereas Wilbon is still too tentative. I actually think Ozigbo is better than Tre Bryant as well. When you play aggressively like that, you move the pile when you go into contact. His 225 lbs doesn't hurt either.

Zig would be my starting back. Big, fast, quick, tough. If Wilbon would just explode through holes he would have another hundred yards for the season. How many times I'm I gonna see him beating the turf after he hits the ground out of frustration, a step quicker and It's big yardage.

Newby had several of those plays. Some guys tend to get tripped up easier than others. Tre is still damn good but Oz is my first call off the bench if both are healthy.

Ozigbo looks like the #1 to me. I don't know why he's #3 off the bench but he shows speed, power, and looks like he wants to lay people out. "Pay that man his money.". Signed, KGB.

Zig is miles better than Wilbon. Him and Bryant would be a really nice one-two punch.

I like Ozigbo in there too as long as Langsdorf is calling the right running plays for him. They just need to make sure they are calling plays that keep him going north/south and not trying to stretch it out.

I was just watching some highlights. Watch #30 for Illinois on Ozigbo's TD.

He just dives/falls down in front of Oz around the 2 yard line before Oz even gets there. He could have saved the TD!

I thought he looked really quick last night. Probably the best I've seen him look but I will note that the talent level on Illinois is probably not at the level of some of the other teams in the conference.
