Haven't seen enough of Gurley to know, but, I do know I'd take Murray over McCarron.


So you'll take the guy who has won only one big game in his career over the guy who has won a National Championship as the MVP and a SEC champion QB. Murray has a history of choking in big games. AJ brings his team back on the road in Tiger Stadium.

Is ball security a real issue with Yeldon?

I've said all year that I thought Gurley was slightly the better of the two. He has a little more size, a little more power, and runs with a lower pad level which translates to more tough yards.

That said, I'm extremely pleased with Yeldon. He's had a hell of a year and I look forward to watching him play for another 2 or 3 years.

Nah. The LSU fumble was AJ not putting it in his gut. The other was his fault. Over 1000 yds as a true freshman in the toughest division of the toughest conference in the country, I'll take that turnover ratio all day long.

I don't think there is a considerable enough difference between the two in terms of talent to warrant either side desiring a trade. They will both have great careers and be taken in the first round or two of the draft in 2 more years.

No. Yeldon is the best tall back I have seen in a long time. Never seen a long kid with such quick feet. He sees the field and running lanes as good as anyone. Props to Gurley, though, he is determined to get every yard.
