Wouldn't mind seing Etienne only get 3 or 4 rushes vs KSU

Give them to him during garbage time so he can get his feet wet and get acclimated to playing in Death Valley. Then for the 2nd home game vs Aub, unleash Travis while there is still limited tape on him. I have a feeling his game breaking ability will come in handy that game.
Then, maybe scale him back during our first road game vs Louisville since you never really know how a Freshman will respond in his first game away from home in a hostile environment.

environment? Hopefully Travis or anyone else on our team isn't influenced by the tens of fans who pack into that stadium for home games.

I was there in 2015 and I thought it was pretty loud.
Obviously not on the same level as Death Valley, but that place will be pretty hopping on 9/16.

Loservilles thought they actually belonged in the ACC. Now they realize that they are owned and will be much more reserved while waiting for the inevitable to occur.

Coaches dont really look at film of a RB and then put together a gameplan to stop him. Film is more for understanding tendencies of play callers and QBs. If you want Etienne to be a big part of the offense against Auburn, then you should want him to get as much experience as possible against Kent St.

You do know that Feaster is being groomed to carry 20 to 25 times per game?

I'm not saying Etienne is going to be the leading back this season. The OP was the one making that insinuation. I was simply pointing out that if you think Etienne is going to be "unleashed" in the Auburn game, then he needs to get as much experience as possible in the Kent St game.
Personally, I think we're looking at a 50/50 to 60/40 split between Feaster and Fuller.
