List the 10 best seasons your team's RB has had since 2006. Add up all their stats to see who has the rightful claim to RBU of the last decade. If one team has the highest rushing yards and highest YPC, then it's indisputable.


For Arkansas:


2006 Darren McFadden - 284 att, 1,647 yards, 5.8 YPC
2006 Felix Jones - 154 att, 1,168 yards, 7.6 YPC

2007 Darren McFadden - 325 att, 1,830 yards, 5.6 YPC
2007 Felix Jones - 133 att, 1,162 yards, 8.7 YPC

2008 Michael Smith - 207, 1,072 yards, 5.2 YPC

2010 Knile Davis - 204 att, 1,322 yards, 6.5 YPC

2013 Alex Collins - 190 att, 1,026 yards, 5.4 YPC

2014 Jonathan Williams - 211 att, 1,190 yards, 5.6 YPC
2014 Alex Collins - 204 att, 1,100 yards, 5.4 YPC

2015 Alex Collins - 271 att, 1,577 yards, 5.8 YPC


Arkansas Total: 2,183 attempts, 13,094 yards, 5.998 YPC

That's not the way this works, sorry.

Arkansas has had 4 RBs in the history of their program receive All-American honors.

Sorry.

I'm not gonna list the stats, but we've had the last two Heisman winning running backs.

And every single RB we've had since 2008 has received All-Conference honors. 7 consecutive Bama RBs have made the cover of Sports Illustrated.

We like to start our threads since 08, for obvious reasons. Though in 07, we had Coffee, who was a third round pick. That's the lowest spot any of our starting running backs has had.

Do any of those covers say Running Back U on them?

We can keep talking about magazines or we can post the #'s and decide once and for all. Lets see it.

All-time it's either Georgia or Auburn

Last 10 years I'd say Alabama, Georgia and Arkansas are the tops.

And WTF have any of them done in the NFL?

You might as well rename McFadden and Jones both Trent Richardson.

Same reply to you:

Hell Cam Newton as a QB has more yards, ypc, and TD's rushing in the NFL than Mark Ingram and we all know about Trent Richardson.

Who cares. This thread is about college. Bring it up on the more sports board if you want to talk NFL.

Mark Ingram - Pro Bowl, 2nd contract $4M/year

Eddie Lacy - Pro Bowl, 2nd Team All-Pro, NFL Rookie of the Year, Top 100 players in 2014 and 2015 as voted on by NFL players.

Trent Richardson - Was at one point ranked in the Top 100 players in the NFL (2013), broke Jim Brown's rookie records at Cleveland before busting.

TJ Yeldon - led Jaguars in rushing and TDs in his Rookie season

Glen Coffee - retired early to join the Army

Kenneth Darby - had a decent 4 year career as a backup

No. No, they don't. Unless the only thing you're looking for is YPC.

More yards, more TDs, more Heismans, more All-Conference selections, more All-American selections, more draft selections, more Sports Illustrated covers.
