If you think of it from a 'role' perspective, I think we might see Damien pick up 'Drake' plays and Bo pick up 'Henry' plays this week. After Henry is through for the day, of course.
Bo or Damien?

- Start date
More concerning to me is the second string offensive line that Damien has to run behind.
Damien's had more game reps than Bo and I'm guessing more total practice reps (since Bo was injured for a bit), so I'm guessing that Damien will the #2 back. But from the tidbits Saban drops, it sounds like Bo is coming on quickly. Hopefully this week affords both ample opportunity to get live reps.
Harris actually got a few snaps against MSU before drake went down. He never got the ball, but he was in there. I'll have to watch again, but I think he ran a couple of plays from the H, and a couple in the drake role with henry still in the game.

It was Bo that nearly fumbled. He took the ball off right tackle and a Miss State defender nearly knocked it loose with a swipe. He bobbled it and had to spin around to regain control. The play looked like it might break for something big before the bobble. IIRC, it still went for 7-8 yards.
Is Bo 70, 80, 90% recovered from his injury? I highly doubt he is 100% due to the fact he is still wearing the knee brace.
It will b the one that doesn't drop the ball first. Bo looks like he is ready to break out to me.
How sweet would that be. For you young'un this was a real option football. No Scam ball that they play at the other school.
In his defense, Damien has been in behind the 2nd team O-line and has gotten snowed under most of the time. When he has had some space, he's had a few nice runs. He had a nice looking 41 yard against MTSU, and a couple good looking runs against Wisconsin.
I do think he will benefit from a year in the strength program and will likely be much better next year. He showed some serious wheels when he ran down the DB that intercepted Bateman in the ULM game.
Maybe, but I'm not so sure? Coach said a few weeks ago that Bo was going to be more involved and that really hasn't happened. I think it is either he is not at full speed, or he is not up to speed with assignments, etc.
Either way we are going to need Harris and/or Bo to give DH some much needed relief down the stretch. Was really getting excited about Drake in the LSU game.
