Our depth chart previews continue with a close look at the running backs, who look to be set up for success in the coming years.
Last Year
The Hoos finished last year ranked 121st in rushing offense. They averaged just 113 yards per game. That included just 38 yards rushing against Richmond in the opener. As a team, the Hoos averaged just 3.5 yards per carry.
But I’d argue that the running backs weren’t Virginia’s problem. As I noted in the OL preview, when the Hoos handed the ball off to the RBs, they were generally successful.
