Just curious as to who those who don't have a rooting interest for either team would prefer. Here is the best stats for both with a breakdown of each's best year with what IMHO are their best measures:
Mark Ingram:
Best Year: 2009
vs ranked teams: 150 att, 941 yards, 6.3 Avg, 8 TD
vs SEC: 194 att, 1143 yards, 5.9 avg., 10 TD
vs Non-Conf: 77 att, 515 yds,6.7 avg. 7 TD
32 Receptions for 334 yards, 3 TDs
2008: 143 att, 728 yards, 5.1 Avg, 12 TD
2009: 271 att, 1658 yards, 6.1 Avg, 17 TD
2010: 158 att, 875 yards, 5.5 Avg, 13 TD
Tre Mason
Best Year: 2013
vs ranked teams: 176 att, 970 yds, 5.5 avg, 10 TDs
vs SEC: 238 att, 1289 yds, 5.4 avg, 17 Tds
vs Non-Conf: 70 att, 529 yds, 6.7 avg, 6 TD
12 receptions 163 yds. 1 TD
2011: 28 att, 161 yds, 5.8 avg, 1 TD
2012: 171 att, 1002 yds 5.9 avg, 8 TD
2013: 317 att, 1816 yds 5.7 avg, 23 TD
Overall, Mason has more TDs and yards, but also had a much greater workload under Gus's system. What do you guys think?
And yes, I realize this will most likely end in a pissing contest.

Makes no difference to me. I'm genuinely curious. I know LSU fans hate Ingram because of his time with the Saints, but I'm really not sure how the rest of the SEC feels about the two stacked against each other.

After watching Tre Mason this year, I feel the same way. Interested to see how he fares in the pros.

Eeeeehhhhhhhhhhh I don't know, I guess if forced I would take Mason.

Mason(516) had fewer career carries than Mark(572).
Tre basically played two seasons, one in Gus' system, and a bowl game in 2011.

You aren't going to get any honest answers. Most LSU fans don't like Ingram b/c of his disappointing career with the Saints (though, thankfully, he finally started playing well late). So now you're down to 11 SEC programs that have any history with both players (taking out Mizzou & A&M since they only know Mason first hand).
You'll get a near equal mixture of hatred for both players due to hatred of both teams, though, to be honest, most fan bases hate Bama more than AU (2012 helped build up some good will for AU after the negative will they got in 2010).

True, I was just referring to thier best years when Tre had 44 more carries than Ingram. Never really understood why Ingram regressed so much in 2010. I think entitlement and injuries were the two biggest factors.
Tre definitely improved throughout his time at AU. Fun back to watch.

The one who won the Heisman.

Mason had a better year than any of the ones Ingram had. Career wise, I think Ingram is better

you see what Tre did in 2012 when the offense was totally inept?

I think the only reason there is ill will toward Ingram is because he won the Heisman doing something that happens in the SEC with some regularity. He capitalized on Saban and Bama and the title run to turn a fantastic season into a supposedly legendary one.
He did nothing wrong, but he got a trophy that theoretically puts you in a class with Herschel Walker and Bo Jackson, and that didn't sit that well with some.

That's just silly.
No one says that about Gino Toretta.
