Single Season Record Best RB

The only issue with lists like these is some of the guys had the benefits of their bowl game's counting, some didn't, some played in a 12 game regular season, some didn't. It is hard to compare these across seasons now. It is why I reject the NFL lengthening the season.

If you have time see who is in all of the top 25 for TD's, AVG per Attempt, Total yards in career or season.

I don't want to start a new thread on this, but does anyone remember the Ole Miss running back that got to 1000 yards because after the season they went back and found him an additional 7 yards on game film. It was a statistical moral victory, but I can't remember who the beneficiary of it was. It was since 2000. I remember reading about it. Funny stuff.

Wish it would list yards per carry

Jeremy Hill is far down the list for 2013 performance but he only carried the ball 203 times at a 6.9 yards per carry clip though.

Ok, in this thread iII'll stick with single Season. I mentioned that next would be career records.

Tre Mason is at the top, he had one of the best seasons ever for a RB in 2013. IMHO he was the main reason Au had the season they did in 2013.

its kind of crazy that no one has broken 2,000 yrds.

The move away from the run game in the South during the '90's is why I think it was not done. If Florida would have tried to with Fred Jackson, he would have done it.

Remember the crazy shootouts the SEC used to have?

Ugh DMAC is 2nd in career yards. If he had stayed 4 years, that number would never be touched

Well thanks dhuck, this is a single Season thread. I mentioned that next would be the career records thread.

I didn't want to combine them and have a discussion about single Season and then career.
