UNDER THE DOME back was becoming an extinct football species. Today's spread style, up-tempo of- fenses might have a maximum of one running back aligned in four-receiver sets, or even have empty backfields when offenses opt to go with five wideouts — including a running back flanking out. That doesn't mean the days of three- running back systems are finished. It's more a matter of demarcating their playing time, sometimes by feel and sometimes by rhythm. Notre Dame head coach Brian Kelly has operated with a three-man run- ning back committee each of the past two seasons. In 2012, it was with seniors Theo Riddick (917 yards rushing) and Cierre Wood (742), plus sophomore George Atkinson III (361). Last year, it was then-junior Cam McDaniel (705), Atkinson (555) and freshman Tarean Folston (470). This year, sophomore and 2013 medical redshirt Greg Bryant replaces Atkin- son, who made the Oakland Raiders' practice squad this summer. Versus Rice, the staff tried to balance the three-man rotation with running rhythm. A different back was inserted each new series, starting with McDan- iel, then Folston, then Bryant. They were then kept in virtually their entire series, in an attempt to keep continu- ity on that drive. Although the goal would be trying to achieve the best of both worlds — using the depth while not exhausting anyone — Kelly admits he doesn't know if it's the ideal bal- ance the rest of the season.
