Opts to sit out bowl game
Freeman will sit out Saturday's Las Vegas Bowl against Boise State, Rob Moseley of Oregon's official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The senior running back will sit out Oregon's final game, likely to prepare for the NFL Draft. Freeman, who has three times as many carries as any other running back on the roster, was ninth in NCAA with 1475 rushing yards this season and averaged 6.0 yards per carry. Without him in pads, expect Oregon's rushing attack to go through Kani Benoit and Tony Brooks-James.

2014
There wasn't much left for Freeman to prove with 4,148 rushing yards (5.9 YPC) and 44 touchdowns in his Oregon career, but he still returned for a senior season that should be a smashing success under new coach Willie Taggart. Taggart rebuilt two wrecked programs at Western Kentucky and South Florida before heading to Oregon, and in his previous stops he made stars out of Bobby Rainey, Antonio Andrews and Marlon Mack. Freeman is more talented than any of those backs by a significant margin. After an injury-shortened 2016 that held him to less than 1,000 yards, a bounce back is in store.
