If you think your team's RB is better than those two, then make your case.

I'd put Hill in there with them.. but I'm not sure there is a clear leader. Beasts. Any coach in the country would get down on his knees and beg for any of the three.

Gurley is the best in the SEC IMO.

Hill has the same amount of 100+ yard rushing games that Lacy does and Hill had less than 15 carries total through week 6.. And Gurley has 7 100+ yard rushing games.

I dunno, some weeks Yeldon looks better, some weeks Gurley looks better. Yeldon has the impact play of the year though. SO I'll give him the edge.

Yeldon is better than Gurley in space. Lacy is probably the best in between the tackles (Gurley is a true frosh after all). Gurley is the best blend of the two and the best back in the SEC not named Lattimore.

ETA: Gillislie also needs consideration...guy has been a badass this year

I agree with this. He is definitely in the mix. All 3 are pretty awesome.

Don't you mean Loston has the missed tackle of the year?

It really was quite an extraordinary whiff.

I have some crow to eat in regards to Lacy. I didn't think he would reach 1,000 yards and he did today. Eddie, I am sorry and

Yeldon is a bit faster but overall I prefer Gurley for inside and outside running and receiving. Honestly you can't go wrong with either of them.

I agree that Yeldon is faster but Gurley is stronger and is a better "between the tackles" runner IMO. Hell, toss a coin.

I love Yeldon. Absolutely love him. But Gurley reminds me of Trent. I'll take Yeldon simply because he plays for Alabama, but if it were the other way around, I'd take Gurley. The guy is a stud.

And the same goes for Hill. Great backs, all three.
