I honestly haven't watched enough of UT this year to notice the guys not named Hurd, so I can't comment on Tennessee.

Hurd seems like a workhorse, and he is one of two freshmen RBs in the league with more yards than Fournette. His ypc is relatively low, though (Hurd: 4.56, Fournette: 5.75).

no doubt.

a lot of that has to do with us already having played Oklahoma and UGA, and him running behind an O-line featuring 5 brand new starters and 2 true freshman.

The run blocking was a trainwreck against USU and Arky St but it seems like it's gotten better every week. Hurd probably only averaged like 3.5 ypc vs those two teams. Against OU and UGA, Hurd had over 200 combined yards at 5.8 ypc.
