Does anyone still doubt LSU is an even better rushing team with this guy in the backfield?

He's the real deal, IMHO. His performance the last few weeks- even while sharing playing time with the other backs- has been fun to watch. It takes a pretty good back to get 100 yards on the Bama defense, obviously- but he did.

Glad he's only a Freshman. I really believe he at least has a chance to become one of the SEC's next elite running backs.

We will see....

He can still leave after next year like the rest of our backs.

You have to go with the hot hand at this point and it is Hill giving him rest with Ware. It will be Hill and Ware pretty much from this point on. Maybe Ford and Hillard will touch the ball 6 to 8 times per game.

LSU is a completely different team since Williford and Hurst were replaced with the beast freshman duo of Turner and Alexander. Add Jeremy Hill and that's a nasty trio of freshman pounding out a great run game.

He is very good, worth the price of admission.

I love the fact that he is emerging but I hate how we just so easily replace people. Hilliard was hot early, but hasnt had more than 10 carries the last 3 games (is he injured?). Ford will get like 80 yards on 8 carries then they stop giving him the ball. Russell Shepard gets a 80 yard touchdown on 1 carry in a game then doesnt get another carry the rest of the game.

We give each back 3-5 carries. Who ever gets the best yards out of those carries gets the majority of the carries the rest of the game. We never even give any of our RB's a chance to get hot.

What is really scary is that all 4 of LSU RB's can gash any team in different ways. Also if teams don't take into consideration #44 that will be the Tyson Death punch. I think COpeland with a head of steam will destroy any 1 person in his way.

Hill Is just a beast with the rock. Future so bright.

I wanted to start a new thread in-game to talk about him. He is a stud. I was very very impressed by him. Great get by LSU.

No doubt. He has that unique combination of size/strength/speed and with that monster Copeland blocking for him, LSU could have one of the most dominant rushing attacks in college football with solid OL play.

Bama recruited this kid very hard and I thought we had him wrapped up for a while. We know why Nick Saban wanted this kid so bad. He's a beast. Such good speed for a guy that size. He has it all, speed, size, power, cuts and he can block.
