Get Mark Walton Going

Walton was on the fringe of the Heisman Trophy contenders through the first three weeks. He averaged 127 yards through the first three games. He has only 83 yards rushing in the last two weeks combined

Yearby picked up for Walton’s struggles against Georgia Tech with nine carries for 65 yards and a touchdown but ran for just 39 on ten carries against FSU.

Yearby and Walton both ran for over 100 yards in wins the first two weeks against Florida A&M and Florida Atlantic. Walton added a third consecutive 100 yard game against Appalachian State in week three. They have not been able to generate as much on the ground as they did in the first three weeks.
