and I am not trying to say he is better as the no. 1 running back, but oMac does look better on paper, with all hype put aside

Again, we hear about TR did all this despite being no. 2, well Omac did this as no. 3

Again, this doesn't take into account the HUGE difference in offensive schemes these two are operating in. For example, having your "No. 1" back on the field at the same time as your "No. 2" or "No. 3" backs almost every play. My question earlier was, in this situation where TR gets the benefit of defenses having to account for a dual threat such as Cam Newton on the field at the same time, do you think TR would perform better or worse than the Auburn backs in this discussion?

FWIW Omac and Dyer were not on the field together a majority of the time. our FB and TE shared the field with the RB most of the time. not to say they were never out there together.

I know what you are trying to say and I believe you know what I am, as well. Hopefully he has a great season.
