and James ran all over these awesome Pac 10 run defenses...


And yet they still had better rush D stats than the teams Bama played?

I'm sure Ingram had the better O-Line as well.

Put it like this......Toby would not have started for Alabama last year. If he is such a great HB, why was he drafted so late?

You didn't watch any Stanford games last year did you?

I was about to point this out.

Did you see the holes they opened all last year and against Arky this year? Holy shite..

So the PAC 10 had 3 solid RBs and those 3 RBs all racked up yards all season against the PAC 10 run defenses...

Pretty much only Bama fans will say Ingram > Gerhart last year. Gerhart only had TEN more rushing TDs and >200 yards more rushing than him last year in 1 less game playing on a much worse team.

Difference for the heisman was simply Ingram played for Bama and Gerhart was playing for Stanford. Switch the players up and Gerhart wins if he's on Bama's team.

What does being a great college RB have to do with being a late draft pick?

Danny Weurffel was a great college QB.

I did, but I honestly dont remember any of them. They were all pretty forgettable.

The draft isn't an exact science, FWIW.

He's also playing behind A.P.

Nobody that will be drafted in the next 3-4-5 years would start ahead of him.

Did the SEC have better backs than Best/Vereen, LMJ, or Gerhart?

No.

Again, compare MI's receiving yards and receiving TDs to TG's. Also, TG had many more carries than MI.

yes. I'd put Trent, Ingram, Tate, Dixon, Charles Scott, and Hardesty against any of those RBs.

I thought Ingram lost it when he quit against Auburn.. I'm gonna be completely honest.

You're still my boy though, Funky.

I'm gonna go argue about Cam Newton winning the Heisman.

So, I guess all the Heisman voters who voted for him were all Bama fans. WOW I did not realize our fan base was so large. A truly stupid post.
