Bryce Love
Does a little of everything without one standout trait. This is his fourth year in the same backfield at Stanford. One game to point at: 136 rushing yards and 1 rushing TD against USC — Week 2, 2018.
Play style
Plays within the scheme — consistent production without a dominant dimension.
Boom vs consistent · carry-yardage shape
Steady, not spectacular
Just 26.7% of his season rushing yards came on his 5 best carries — remarkably even — and he's stuffed on 26.8% of his carries. 11 carries for 21 yds vs Arizona State; 22 for 136 vs USC.
Counted from the play-by-play, so a carry or two can differ from the box score.
Closer · Q4-with-lead carry share
Not actually a closer
45.5% of carries overall (163/358) → 25.3% of Q4-with-lead carries (21/83) — 95.2% of those in competitive (≤16-pt) games.
Counted from the play-by-play, so a carry or two can differ from the box score.
