Who cares about Notre Dame?
How does Arkansas stack up against other SEC teams with their running backs?

How McFadden didn't win the Heisman is baffling to this day

I've always been amazed at the number of great RBs that have come out of the Razorback program.

ESPN and all that Tebow this and Tebow that. Tebow wasn't half the player McFadden was.

No, he wasn’t. He won it because he was a bible thumper praising god every other play. I’m not saying the preacher was a bad player, but when you put things into context, what McFadden did at Arkansas, given that it’s Arkansas was unbelievable.

ND is a weird team to pick, especially since theyve been wildly successful compared to Arky ...like forever.

Not to downplay McFadden, because he was incredible, but you’re definitely “misremembering” Tebow for whatever reason.

Uhm, didn't they push your shite in with that 7th ranked RB. Scored almost 60. Oh look, I think Love just scored again.

I actually agree with you somewhat here. Tebow was an exceptional motivator and had lots of heart, but it was Percy Harvin that made Tebow.
Without Percy Harvin, Tebow would not have been as good. Harvin was one hell of a WR and the dude was open on damn near every play. And I think that gets overlooked all the time.
If anything, it should have been Harvin and McFadden as front runners for the Heisman.
It's a shame Harvin couldn't get over his injuries, I think he would have done great in the NFL if he was healthy.

Remember when Arky played Mizzou in the Cotton Bowl? hahahaha
you had Dmac and Jones? Who did NOTHING yet Tony fuggin Temple ran for over what 400 yards and set the Cotton Bowl record?
Man that had to have been a day to forget for you clowns.

Corrine Brown from UF Hogwarts says it’s “Percy Harvey” under Corch Irwin Meyers and Tim Tebows.
IYKYK
I was happy to see both Tebow and McFadden leave. And thankful that Matt Jones left with them.
Arky had some other back named Felix something or another who would give LSU fits.

Memory fades, man. Point still stands, in general.
I trust that you know Hog history better than me.

This is just weird AF....
Jeremiah Love is 4th in single season rushing for the Irish.
Vagas Ferguson holds their school record at 1,437 back in 1979 you know when they didn't have a Doak Walker award, teams played only 11 games, and ND skipped bowl games and even if they didn't the stats from bowls didn't count.
Vagas would rank 4th at Arkansas after McFadden x2 & Alex Collins all of whom had 13 games.
