During Saturday’s 43-35 victory over Mississippi, Bowens delivered a solid performance, registering 10 carries for 61 yards and catching both of his two targets for an additional 16 yards. His reliability and consistent yardage made him a steady contributor for the Bulldogs’ offensive success in the matchup.
Shift in Backfield Dynamics
For several weeks, it appeared that Bowens might emerge as the primary running back for the Bulldogs. However, recent games suggest that Nate Frazier has reclaimed the top running back position. Over the past two weeks, Frazier has consistently outperformed Bowens in carries, signaling a shift in the team’s offensive rotation.
Frazier’s Return to the Lead Role
In Saturday’s contest, Frazier led the team with 17 carries, compared to Bowens’ 10. This marks the second consecutive week in which Frazier has taken more rushing attempts. Just a week earlier, the difference between their workloads was only three carries, but now the gap has widened, confirming Frazier’s return as the team’s go-to option in the backfield.
