Gundy said Carson 'good' in opener

Published Sep. 9, 2015 10:26 p.m. ET

Oklahoma State's offense would have liked to produce more than 24 points on the road against Central Michigan in the opener, but overall, head coach Mike Gundy was pleased with tailback Chris Carson's performance on the ground.

“I thought Chris Carson had what I would consider a good game,” said Gundy. “There were times where I thought he was a little hesitant to accelerate through a hole. But he made moves, made guys miss, spin moves, jumped outside, got us some key yards at times.

“After just one game, which it's way too early, he gave us something that we haven't had, an ability to get out there and get more yards than what he should. I thought he ran hard. I thought at times he dropped his pads and was physical.”

Carson registered 89 yards on 21 carries Thursday night. He hopes to increase that efficiency in Week 2.
