Ismail Mahdi - Splits carries in winMahdi posted 12 carries for 36 yards and one touchdown during Thursday's 38-17 victory versus Troy.

ImpactMahdi didn't handle his typical workload Thursday, sharing running-back work with Torrance Burgess (12 carries) and Deion Hankins (eight carries). Mahdi didn't receive a touch in the final two drives of the contest -- Texas State led by 21 at that point -- it appears he's facing some competition as RB1. Burgess turned his 12 rushes into 85 yards, and Mahdi is averaging just 3.6 yards per carry after his Week 1 breakout.
