For a QB and backfield that had ONE really good season, to say they are the best of all time? I'm waiting for a heckuva an argument to back that statement up.

I hate the Florida Gators and i guess you became a fan during the tebow era but damn....

How dumb are you if you list jeff demps and percy harvin ahead of emmitt smith and fred taylor? What the actual frick?

RB's- Kevin Faulk and Leonard Fournette.

All time is so subjective.

The longer they played and the less mistakes they made helps them rack up totals that impress.

So, are we talking “career numbers”?

Or, we talking “the dog I want to win me a game?”

For Auburn:
1. Pat Sullivan accomplished so much at Auburn BEFORE we had any success.

2. Cam is the dog you want in a one game situation.

I was waiting on a Gator fan to mention Emmitt Smith.

That depends on the system we are running.

Read option? Quinn Grovey or Matt Jones.

Pro style? Ryan Mallet or Joe Ferguson.

RB would be D-Mac. We've had some really good RBs but he's above the pack.

FB... hmm... I'd go with Leon Campbell. He was a monster of a man whose favorite way to introduce himself to people was his trick of bending railroad spikes with his bare hands.

All it takes is ONE really good year, to have the best SINGLE year.

You’re a damn genius.

Fred Taylor. Friend was his NFL position coach (ex NFL RB & later HC) & said he was the best he ever coached.

Of all the bragging you LSU fans do on here about Burrow and that 2019 team, that's the best you can come up with?


If you're not convinced yet of how good Burrow and that team was, you're retarded and it's a waste of time to argue.

Case can be made for a number of other guys for RB2, but went with Alexander

not sure why you were down voted that'd be my top 3 as well. The best QB and 2 best RBs we've had (although chubb is oh so very close to being up there).
