Barring injury, the only debate is whether Fournette finishes 2nd or 1st place on the all-time SEC rushing list.

He and Mcfadden are what and what.

Jamal Lewis deserves a mention. He was a frikkin' beast at UT.

SEC has had some amazing backs. All mentioned were very good. That said, any list that doesn't include Henry after breaking the single season rushing record for both yards and scores in a year he won both the Heisman and the natty is invalid. That won't happen again for a long, long time.

No Jamal Lewis?


He was actually the next guy I was thinking of, but I couldn't decide between Lewis, Foster, Henry, Stewart for UT. Who do you consider the Vols' best RB?

Best college career for the SEC outside of Bo and Herschel would have to go to Darren McFadden. If you are counting what they went on to do in the NFL than Emmitt Smith.

Darren McFadden and Derrick Henry should be in the top 5. Leonard Fournette should as well if he keeps up his pace and doesn't suffer any injury this year. Lots of great RB's though.. hard to list.

Kevin Faulk broke his leg his junior year which gave way to Cecil.

MSU's David Fair would be mentioned here if it weren't for a career ending knee injury as a Fr.

Yeah but I think the spirit of the thread is backs that don't run behind a 'roided up line from a strength and conditioning coach that dopes his players and then leverages the dirt he has on the university into a contract that busts the curve of all S&C coach salaries.
