The most significant difference, IMO, is the OL between UGA and Bama. Gurley being able to succeed in spite of his bad OL is a big deal, at least to me


Before last season, Alabama's OL was ranked as the 8th best in college football and Georgia's was ranked as the 10th best.

UGA OL was a damn joke.

Key Words. Here's an article that ranks how well offensive lines performed after last season based on certain factors.

FBS 2013 Offensive Line Rankings

You'll notice that Bama blows UGA out of the water in most categories that measure run blocking.

Ok. So what you have told us in this thread is, that Gurley has put up better numbers, he has fumbled less, and he has run behind a lesser offensive line.

YOU have made each of these points.

Why do you have to ask why Gurley is ranked higher?
