Colorado Running Back Richard Young to Start Against Arizona State.
Arizona State · Colorado · Kansas StateAfter working with an inconsistent attack most of the season, Brennan Marion is starting to incorporate more carries out of the backfield into his Go-Go offense. Richard Young will get another opportunity to start on Saturday.
The Alabama transfer made the most of his first start for the Buffaloes during last weekend's win over Kansas State. He had 24 carries after receiving limited playing time throughout most of the season.
Young has been one of just two 100-yard rushers during Sanders' tenure at Colorado. Ironically, both of them have come during this year under Marion's guidance.
The Go-Go attack hasn't been nearly as efficient as advertised. However, this is a silver lining, which comes in the midst of CU's postseason hopes still being alive.
