Oklahoma State football vs. TCU: 3 bold predictions
2. Kyle Hicks and Justice Hill each eclipse the 100-yard mark
Sophomore running back and former Freshman All-American Justice Hill has quietly been very productive this year. Hill rushed for 91 yards and two touchdowns last week. Rudolph’s five passing touchdowns overshadowed Hill’s performance.
Hill is averaging nearly 7.0 yards per carry, with 250 total rushing yards and three touchdowns this season. He is Oklahoma State’s leading rusher and could easily go over 1,000 yards on the year for the second season in a row.
Meanwhile, TCU running back Kyle Hicks is one of the more talented rushers in the Big 12. Darius Anderson is actually the leading rusher for the Frogs, but Hicks was the presumed starter entering the season.
Hicks is averaging 5.6 yards per carry and is still waiting for his big breakout performance. That should come this weekend against a thin group of linebackers for the Pokes. Both Hill and Hicks have the talent to lead their offenses this weekend.
