You realize he wasn't talking about who the best RB was during the time just comparing deuce and Shaun right? Everyone knows Faulk was better had more production. Chill. Stay on topic.


Can you read?

Here, I'll help:

Deuce. And it ain't close.

BS...they were both great backs and it's a close call no matter who you prefer. Hard to compare college stats directly as Alexander didn't start until his junior year...

Those bama teams were talented.

While we weren't devoid of talent, depending upon how you define talented, we did lose to La Tech at home that year. The prior 2 years we went 4-7 and 7-5...and the year after we went 3-8. Ole Miss had a better overall record, by several games, during that same time period...and OM never had a losing season in that stretch while Bama had 2...

Evidenced by the fact Alexander was always voted among the most overrated players.

Apparently not by the voters that mattered...as has been noted he won an NFL MVP...he was also named All-Pro twice, made the Pro Bowl 3 times, and won an NFL Offensive Player of the Year award as well...

Both had 5.5 yards per touch. Shaun played a tougher schedule, in that we get Tennessee while Miss. had who ? Vandy ? Plus Bama usually plays a tough OOC game, Miss. not so much.

Shaun gets the nod
