1. Trent Richardson
2. Michael Dyer
3. Marcus Lattimore
4. Zac Stacy (tied)
4. Isaiah Crowell (tied)

Receiving Votes: Dennis Johnson and Eddie Lacy.

Note: Marcus Lattimore, even after missing almost half of the season, still has a better season going than most. I thought he would have dropped out by now, but no one is really challenging to move him down the list. Pretty impressive by ML and a little disappointing from some of the SEC RBs that I thought would have much better seasons.

It's pretty cool how LSU has horrible talent on all sides of the ball, but still manages to win against everybody. Les Miles is a god.

As a SO, before he went out this season, he was only 5 or 6 TDs away from breaking our all time rushing TDs list. Held by Harold Green and Heisman Trophy winner George Rogers (31 each). He was in position to pass that this season, will certainly do it next season (barring injury of course) and if he stays for his SR year that record will be too far out of reach for any future Gamecock RB to pass.

It's interesting, but not surprising, that you don't have Dennis Johnson in your top 5 especially since he is producing 28.8% more yards per carry than your number 2 rated player. 28.8% more! That's impressive.

DJ has 606 total yards for a 6.7 average with a long of 71 and 3 TDs. DJ also has 20 catches for 258 yards (a 12.9 average) with a long of 31 and 2 TDs.

If DJ had the same number of carries as Dyer has and had the same average he would be at 1,534 yards. Also, RBs should be judged on their total contribution to their team, i.e. receiving yards as well and not just rushing yards.

Richardson is hands down the best in the conference, if not the country. Lattimore is next.

Also, I will take 5 guys, any combination of whom is good for at least 150 yards a game. Like stated earlier, LSU does things differently.

If LSU had only those five RB's on the team this year then not one would be on your list. Because Miles will not let LSU become a one horse show.

This ^ is correct. Trent is a little more shifty / hard to bring down, and much more of a threat catching the ball out of the backfield. Dyer is on pace to hit 1400 yards this season behind a terrible 0-line.
