- Alabama (D. Harris, Bo, Jacobs, N. Harris, Hurts)
- Georgia (Chubb, Michel, Swift, Herrion, Holyfield, Fromm)
- Missisippi State (Williams, Fitz)
- Auburn (Pettway, Johnson, Martin)
- Texas A&M (Williams, Ford, Mond)
- LSU (Guice, Williams)
- Tennessee (Kelly, basically)

If you are including Hurts for Bama, then include Fromm for Georgia. He's ran for a few TD's, and several first downs.

Fromm has a done a nice job keeping defenses honest a few times a game.

Hurts is probably one of the 10 best runners in the conference.

Where's UF's rank? A few of there fans seem to think their backfield is as good as UGA's this year.

Mine wasn't a ranking just a list. Florida's best back is still suspended right?

Yeah, but obviously they weren't good enough for your initial list.

In the preseason I would have had them there with their full allotment of backs. But they haven't all played yet. I guess they could probably be in the 5-7 range.

Its a inside AU joke, he leads the teama in YPC, but we let cripple Pettway kill a couple drives yesterday instead of playing Martin.

We are #3 in the conference in rushing

We are up there if you include our QB, who functions more as a RB anyway
