You listed like 18 RB's so I just skimmed the numbers of the best 10. What's the total rushing yards of Bama's top 10 over the last decade? I'm on my phone now or else I'd add it up.

You wanted to know who RBU was. I listed all of our runningbacks who saw significant carries... only 9 RBs total. I didn't list a single RB who didn't start during their career.
If you want me to re-calculate it by leaving off Terry Grant - who was the only one of the bunch who didn't receive All-Conference honors, I'll be glad to. I'm not going to leave off an All-SEC RB just to fit your thread's arbitrary criteria.

The criteria is 10 best seasons over the last decade.

Arbitrary criteria. I'm not going to leave off an All-SEC RB just to fit your made up criteria.

So Arkansas beats Bama. Who's next?

More yards, more TDs, more Heismans, more All-Conference selections, more All-American selections, more NFL Draft selections, more Sports Illustrated covers, etc...
This thread is stupid.

I clearly laid out the criteria in the OP. You should post Bama's numbers, they may be 2nd or 3rd.

So college football started in 2006?

Why? Are you asking because you know AU won't beat Arkansas? I'm actually pretty afraid of AU.

No, I think it's comical you want to proclaim Arkansas RBU because of one decade out of over 120 years of college football that has been played. 
Historically, Auburn is second to none at the RB position.

Yeah, that's not true, either.

Yes, yes it is. I have never heard of bama referred to as "RBU". Can you say the same about Auburn?

So Bama has more yards but less YPC than Arkansas. One big advantage Bama has is that their RB's never have to face Bama's D which has been the best run stopping D over the last decade. Also, Bama has played in more games. Considering these 2 advantages, when it comes to the numbers under this criteria, Ark > Bama.

Lots of goal posts moving here.
So what you're trying to tell me is that the only category that Arkansas leads Bama in is YPC, and by a whole tenth of a yard - which comes out to be about 3 inches per carry, and thus Arkansas > Bama.
Got it.

Auburn hasn't had a dominant running back since Cadillac. More than a decade ago.
