Instead of hitting the hole he jittered around in the backfield too much. Here's hoping his vision improves.

Agreed! to my untrained eye I saw at least 2 glaring holes he missed. He's young. He'll learn or he'll get passed over. Life as a RB at OSU

Yeah, I see one obvious bad read (0:59 mark) and a couple less than optimal reads in there (last couple runs in the clip). But you can also see the explosiveness and shiftiness in there (e.g., at the 0:28 mark). The Texas defense was fast to attack the ball and he was facing an 8 man box through much of the day - by design just not a lot of wiggle room in the running game.

Everybody is somebody else's weirdo.
“I love running between the tackles, catching the ball, being put out in space, making people miss, getting downhill. I mean, I think to me, everything is a strength,” Peoples said. “And I've really been working on that. You see the growth from my freshman year to this year. And just being through the program and everything, I've really strengthened up every part of my game and continue to get stronger in areas; pass protection, everything like that.”
“I've always had good hands and I've always been agile and being able to move me in that area is something they've done more this year,” Peoples said. “So I mean, I think it's always just been a strength of mine. It's never been a weakness in my hands, being able to catch the ball in space and stuff like that.”
“Every time you want to be like, ‘Man, I gotta strike, I gotta strike.’ But having your mind like that can really throw you off of your game,” Peoples said. “So I’d say really just taking each play as its own individual play and not really being worried about, ‘OK, I need to strike, I need to do this, that, and the third.’ ‘Cause my reps might be limited, but really just taking the most out of every opportunity, just keeping my mindset on that.”
“We got a lot of football left. We're going all the way back to the championship; we're gonna have six or seven more games. And there's a lot of ball left. So really just keeping my mind on that and knowing in God's timing, if I keep on doing what I'm doing, it's gonna happen,” Peoples said. “So just being focused, focusing on the team, the guys in the room, and all on the main goal.
“I'm hungry for it, man,” Peoples added. “I came here and I want to be a contributor to this team, of course. So every time I'm in there, I'm giving it my all.”
Just sayin': After (apparently) being passed on the depth chart by 2 true Freshmen; (he's saying all the right things) however, I'll say it wouldn't shock me if he opts for the transfer portal after this season. With that being said; I definitely hope he stays as he is still making valuable contributions to the offense this season.
