This list is just incorrect. I know it's opinion, but their opinion is wrong.

They got one thing right, Roc and Jovon are definitely better than Hurd and Kamara

1. Collins and Williams
2. Chubb and Michel (Just based on stats, still think bugas better)
3. Fournette and Williams
4. Henry and Drake
5. Thomas and Robinson (Although theyll probably move higher during the year)


Good list. Chubb is so good that you could have Ark. and UGA 1A and 1B, Same goes with LSU and Bama at 3rd due to Fournette. Like you said though Auburn will have great #'s by the end of the year due to Gus's system.
I like UT's running backs as well.

Have Ark RBs lived up to their preseason hype since Jones/Mac?

Lol at Arkansas fan saying Auburn RB's will put up great #s because of Gus's system while his fellow Razorbacks are arguing that Bert's system has nothing to do with their RB's #s. I guarantee you that Roc Thomas and Jovon Robinson are both better pro prospects than Collins and Williams.

5. DERRICK HENRY & KENYAN DRAKE, ALABAMA
Drake is returning from a nasty ankle injury that cut his 2014 season short, while Henry returns as one of the SEC’s most physically imposing backs in 2015. Much of this duo’s success hinges on how effectively Drake can return from injury, but even if he can’t, another five-star prospect like freshman Damien Harris could easily step in a fill Drake’s role in the Tide’s tailback tandem. Regardless, if Henry runs as effectively and powerfully between the tackles as many expect this fall, it’ll open up plenty of opportunities for the other back in the tandem to attack defenses on the edges, and both backs should improve the Tide’s play-action game for whoever the first-time starter at quarterback turns out to be this fall. A shaky passing game and rebuilding offensive line will be hurdles to overcome, but Saban’s track record of producing NFL-caliber tailbacks at Alabama speaks for itself, and it should continue talking this fall in the form of Henry and Drake.

I'll take Fournette and Guice. Henry's a very good back but I don't know how they're top-5 with Drake coming off his injury.

Same reason LSU isn't listed with a guy who has zero carries

Why is it so hard for some to figure out that every poster on here isn't the same person? Is it really that complicated?

Right because it's not like we're trying to project what guys will do or anything.

We actually aren't trying to do that in this thread. Have your mother read the OP to you again. We are looking at the best in the league, not the best IF in the league

We don't deserve a spot on a top 5 list but I think Tra Carson/James White will be significantly better.
