‘A brother and a teammate:’ Lang-Snead tandem elevating ASU offense with effective ground game

JONESBORO -- Arkansas State's 20 rushing yards on 27 carries against James Madison wasn't awe-inspiring.

That might not have been the case a year ago when the Red Wolves had the nation's third-worst rush offense, but prior to Saturday, ASU had logged at least 95 yards on the ground in four of its five games.

Take out the Dukes' six sacks for a loss of 31 yards, and it still would've been a worse performance than the Red Wolves' 53 yards -- sacks included -- at Ohio State.

It made the absence of running back Johnnie Lang all the more notable.
