SDS is like B/R these days. They have a handful of really good writers and analysts and a whole bunch of suck arse ones and lots and lots of clickbait. It's a shame too as SDS used to be really good.
To be fair here, the bracket was put together by the SDS staff but the winners of each round were fan voted. So... blame yourselves for not caring as much

What? Herschel had the first SEC-centric 30 for 30 documentary.
I never said he didn't.

You said he had a 30 for 30 about his trade between the vikings and cowboys. Last I checked, that wasn't what his 30 for 30 was about.

But, but, everyone knows I'm incapable of being at fault. How could I possibly blame myself?
Seriously, as I said before I think this one is fun to argue/debate. But the comment you responded to was more my lament that SDS has gone downhill. It used to be really good all the way around but now it only has a handful of good writers which sucks because they were one of the better websites for SEC news. (I didn't mean the bracket stuff but the website in general).

Well I didn't say he had only one, I just said one was based around him being one of the worst trades ever.

Agreed, the website is pretty much a bunch of clickbait BS with info we've already seen posted here in some form or fashion.

Not gonna lie, that bracket is horrible.

I believe Bo is the greatest athlete of all time while Herschel is the best running back to have played the game.

Correct choice, although Bo Jackson was a better player.

That list is stupid.
Bo and no other. Period. Ever.
As a LSU fan I agree

Bo was a great athlete, but people severely underestimate Walker as an athlete.
He ran a faster 100 m than Jackson (and Deion Sanders). He was also on an Olympic bobsled team. Still doing MMA. He was a two time All American sprinter on the UGA track team.
He is still top 10 in total yardage in NFL history (not even counting the USFL years.)
He is the only player in NCAA history to finish in the top three in Heisman voting in all three of his collegiate seasons.
He is the only NCAA player who played only three years to finish in the top ten in rushing yards.
Walker was the first "true freshman" to become a first-team All-American.[10]

Tebow was also a 3x Heisman finalist.
Posted on 4/1/15 at 9:44 pm to Korin
Top three in Heisman voting. Tebow was 5th in 2009.

I didn't say finalist. Reread. I said the only player to finish top 3 in Heisman voting 3 times (in each of his college seasons). Still very impressive for both, just clarifying.

A finalist is a finalist. There's no difference between finishing #3 and #5.

Yes there is. 3 is two spots higher than 5.
