I'll be happy to discuss this when he goes head to head with LSU or Bama's D.

Hill had less help and still out gained Yeldon.


Hill was 3 carries away from Tripling the amount of Yeldon's carries.

That's on Alabama's Coaches, not carrying the rock more.

Very impressed with Hill. Only the second guy iirc since the start of the 08 season to rush for 100+ against Bama (Poole from Tenn in like 2010 had 100 but like 70 of it was on 1 run)

Yeldon and hill are about the same IMO. Yeltsin had a much better offensive line. Hill had less help and still out gained Yeldon.


LSU has replaced 3 OL starters during the year, including a certain 1st round LT in Faulk, lost in game one. It's one of those "what might have been" seasons for the Tigers, losing 4 starters on offense and two on defense since training camp. Not to mention four other 2's and 3's. No doubt in my mind that just with the OL guys and the starting RB the team would be undefeated and number one now. Looks like it's going to be 'Bama's year once again.

We are missing a guy we really would have handed it to more this past weekend in Jalston Fowler. So unfortunate as he was made for the bayou battle matchup.

All i said was that I would be happy to discuss him after he plays Bama and/or LSU. Most likely Bama in the SECCG. I personally have not watched him play an entire game and will not use one game's stats against an up and down Florida team to pass judgement on him. If he is as good as you say he is, then he will show it against Bama in the SECCG, and will then receive all the praise he would deserve.

Yeldon's fumble completely changed the game IMO.



Hill FTW. Unreal vision.

Ware has got to bolt for the NFL after this season. I'm kinda curious to see what Ford does also. Our backfield is crowded.

I like Yeldon, the dude is a stud already! With Hill and Blue back next yr it will be nice to watch going through that right or left side. With faulk returning as well we will have the best O-line in the SEC. Faulk,Collins,Turner,Alexander. With the way BAMA and LSU are recruiting the is gonna be a fun rivalry to watch for the yrs to come. WATCH OUT SEC!! These two teams will be on top for a while!

Both Lacy and Yeldon are better than anyone LSU has to offer. LSU's RB's are really good, but Bama's are ridiculous.

I disagree Hill is an animal and none of your backs are close to him. Yeldon is a special talent but I prefer Hill and Fowler type running backs. Fowler is still my favorite back just because he is a fb with HB speed and moves. I don't think Lacy is right still after his surgery but that's JMO. He had a good game but he doesn't seem as quick as years past.

6.9 ypc and 7.5 ypc = twice as good as 3.7 ypc.

Also, 1 rec 28 yds 1 td> 3 rec 12 yds.

Like I said, I agree Yeldon was the best back in the game Sat. night. There are plenty of factors that affect a players stats in a game. Just looking at ABILITY and skill sets, Yeldon > Hill > the rest.

Those two consistently turned a no gainer into positive yards. Something the other backs CAN do, but these two were doing it consistently.
