You realize Dyer rushed for 1300 yards in 2011 right
Latt had a little over 800 yards rushing and 200 yarfs receiving with 11 total TDs in 7 games before he got hurt. 116 yds/game compared to Dyer's 103.

Not to mention Lattimore had a much better freshman season.

In College? I'll base it off of national perception and the general "No one wants to try and tackle that" opinion.

T-Rich
Gurley
Lattimore
Mason
Jeremy Hill

In NFL? (Projecting for most)

Gurley
Lacy
Lattimore
Mason
Hill

I had the same list, except I had Lacy over Richardson.

I wouldn't say that's 100% accurate even though I know what you mean.

More yards, more TDs, and about 400 more receiving yards doesn't equal a better season?

I didn't check the stats but if you are right, I want to hear his explanation.

Obviously the secret to being a good RB is dreads.

Cam Newton doesn't play for Auburn in 2010 and Auburn is a 2-3 loss team

Plus I could probably find a timed photo of Trovon Reed dragging 6 Bama defensive linemen too if he ever caught the ball but that doesn't mean that he is beast mode.


Richardson went into beast mode against Auburn in 2011. Over 200 yards rushing.

Either way, Eddie Lacy was better than Richardson was in college.

I can't say much on Rich caused we never faced him. But Todd Grantham still has nightmares of Eddie going in dry on his pudding DL in the SECCG.

And if Dyer didn't play for Auburn in 2010 we were a 2 loss team

Whats the point

Dyer was not on a team where he was the work horse either like Latt.

Dyer had a better season in general. He shared with Cam and OMac

Dyer smoked Latt the 3 times they played against each other IIRC.

No pun intended.

Lattimore had more attemps, but got smoked at YPG.

When LF outrushes Henry this year, as expected. Better rusher and expected more out of him because he'sich more hyped,

I expect Bama's excuse to be because Yeldon had too many touches, Something including Yeldon etc but wait till 2015

I'm sitting down here at the beach on the deck watching fireworks and getting drunk with several buddies.

I just read that to them ... we all lulzed for the same reason.

I mean it:s not like Dyer had a jelluva OLine, DLine and Heismsn trophy winning QB on the team with him or anything.

We're all probably thinking about a different 2010 Auburn team.
