How do LSU fans figure their RBs yardage looks after the season is over?

I say Hilliard has the most.


Kenny Hilliard - 850 yards

Spencer Ware - 600 yards

Michael Ford - 400 yards

Alfred Blue - 350 yards


At the same time I think Bama's looks like this


Eddie Lacy - 1500 yards

TJ Yeldon - 700 yards

Dee Hart - 350 yards

Jalston Fowler - 300 yards

Seems about right, Mett for LSU may pick up 100-250 if he's as athletic as NCAA makes him, and a fifth LSU RB may get 100.

No way of telling. Our RBs did amazing last year with 7-8 in the box at times, Mett will definitely open things up.

..and its not like our O-line is going to be worse, it'll be the same or even better.

What has E Lacy done( besides showing he Couldn't stay healthy, AS A BACKUP), to warrant saying this?

I think Lacy goes over 2,500 yards. You are shortchanging him.

Bama's rushing for 2850? Wow. Are you guys going to a wishbone or a flexbone?

Also you think Bama will outrush LSU without Trich ? You couldn't outrush LSU with a top 5 nfl talent rb in trich.

ETA: I think Bama might outrush us , but it won't be by as much as your stats say. 600 yards better? Delusional much?

I don't think Lacy will go for 1,500. Too many of your games will be blowouts, and Saban isn't going to run him 25 times in those games.

I think Saban is calling it a flexible Wishbone.

We will have the best O-Line in the nation for one.

Also, Lacy, injured, still rushed for near 700 yards and 7 TDs with less than 100 carries in the SEC West, and he didn't play in Garbage time, he played when the starters on D were still out there.

I remember a year ago everyone saying T-Rich wasn't healthy as a back up because he missed two games, and that he would suck.

Could happen, but I don't see Fowler being the main releif back. He may play that role to give Lacy a break if the play that Lacy goes out on is like 2nd and 2 and then stay in for a while, but I just don't see him getting more carries than Yeldon. Hart will bust out long runs.


If we line up in the I Fowler should be in at FB and occasionally get a FB dive play.

I never said ELacy sucked. He isn't TRich by a longshot. He won't put up trich numbers. Also your oline isn't that much better than LSU's , if at all. We return the same amount of starters as you and we outrushed you last year. Also our Oline avg weight is 324 and Bama's is 317 before you say how massive your oline is.

So, if you have a script A next to your name, you believe that Edward K. Lacy will put up a season that will place him in the top five at Alabama all time (or right outside of it if you said 1350)? Bold predictions.

Looks about right except I'd switch Fowler and TJ's yardage. TJ I gonna be a beast one day. He is the total package. He is already a better back than Fowler, IMO

I think Fowler is good, but TJ Yeldon is gonna be special.

I see Ford being our best RB again. But only because he won't be the starter taking the bulk of the hits. We'll be splitting carries over 6 guys most likely. But unlike last year, none of those guys will be a special needs QB. So I see our runs being more productive and our passes being more productive.

I actually see us rushing for slightly fewer yards than last year, but throwing better (but not sure by how much).
