Posted this a while back the last time RBU was brought up. These are teams brought up during the conversation for the title, plus Bama because...just because:

Auburn- 4 CFBHOF RBs, 12 AA RBs, and 1 Heisman RB.

USC- 11 CFBHOF RBs, 19 AA RBs, and 5 Heisman RBs.

Miami- 1 CFBHOF RB, 5 AA RBs, and 0 Heisman RB.

Texas- 5 CFBHOF RBs, 10 AA RBs, and 2 Heisman RBs.

Bama- 6 CFBHOF RBs, 15 AA RBs, and 1 Heisman RB.

I think Miami is brought into the conversation because of their 1st Rd RBs.

I don't include that because I don't think anything that happened in the NFL makes you RBU, it's college only IMO...

Not yet, but he has a great chance, as does a few other back from his era.

Edgerrin James might add another for Tha U...

Ok. Endzone argument. Bo didn't as much as Ingram, or McFadden, or Walker. That puts him at least 4th on that criteria for you. I'm sure there have been a few other backs with more TD's too.


This is fricking golden.

Now, what was your argument for Ingram > Gerhart for 2009? YPC? Because Gerhart put Ingram to shame in yds/game & TDs.

Amazing how your requirements change depending on what colors the player wears.

Ingram Heisman year:

1992 yards from scrimmage 6.6 yards per touch 20 TD's

Bo Heisman year:

1859 yards from scrimmage 6.6 yards per touch 17 TD's

Ingram was a better Heisman winner than Bo. More yard, more touchdowns, same amount of yards per touch.

Did I say Jones was better? No. I said there were many RB's just as good as Bo was, and that is fact.

Bo was just saving energy for his baseball season.

Smart move, considering he wasn't good enough to lead the football team to a NC, unlike a few other RB's since him.
