One thing about Dexter McCluster, he got all of his yards in the big games. He didn’t start the season running the ball and once he took over he was only used in big games. He sat out the cupcake games where he could have put up even more ungodly numbers. This of course to save his smaller frame from injury.

Wait a second I thought McCluster was predominantly wide out??

Did he line up behind QB for majority of the calls?

Serious question

But now they have been incorporated by the SEC. We get to count their stats; that is how it works.

That’s the first time I studied that replay and noticed that Milroe was tripped up by his oline man at the line of scrimmage. That guy was blown up.

He played WR his first two years I think then his Jr year played some at RB. His senior year he played primarily running back but still caught a lot of passes.

From his Wiki page:

McCluster's senior season was full of highlights as he set two school records against Tennessee for rushing yards in a game with 282 and all-purpose yards in a game with 324. In his final game in Vaught-Hemingway Stadium, he ran for 148 yards and threw the only collegiate touchdown pass of his career in the 25-23 win over then 9th-ranked LSU. He rushed for 1,169 yards on 181 attempts (a 6.4 yards per carry average), and made 44 receptions for 520 yards with 12 total touchdowns that made him the only player in SEC history to rush for over 1,000 yards and receive for 500 yards in a single season. He finished his college career at Ole Miss with 3,685 yards from scrimmage and 23 TD's.

Well since you are including pre-SEC players, I’ll share my favorite clip of Mr. James Wilder 1978 v. Nubs. Actually one of my favorite power RB clips of all time.

You will NOT deny me this 6!

Of course he did. He’s predictable and boring.

It was a hard list to compile. I couldn't list every running back to ever play the game at every school; that would be another list.

There were many I didn't include from Alabama that many would probably say I should have.

Johnny Musso
Najee Harris
T.J. Yeldon
Eddie Lacy
Sherman Williams
Siran Stacey
Tony Nathan
Wilbur Jackson
Major Ogilvie
Ken Darby
Etc...

Make 'ya own list. I don't follow lsu football and am not familiar with Leonard Fournette.

If you want me to add him to my list, you will have to behave decently and ask nicely. You know, be normal.

So you coincidentally include RBs from every team, including some not even having played in SEC and come up with some kahkah about not watching every team? What a load. You'd better take a laxative. That could be trouble.
