That post ^^ is absolutely sick with truth.

And I forgot about Kamara. First 'Bama steals him from us, then the Vols, dang.

But yeah, he's going to be well ahead of Fournette. The only thing holding him back will be Hurd, but it won't be enough.

Henry has been basically a second half back only. He had a grand total of two 20+ yard runs in the first half of games of his 14 game season. He had 8 20+ yards in the 2nd half of those games.

4.65 ypc 1st half
6.95 ypc 2nd half

Seem to be missing a couple of backs that ran for 1000 yards with no passing game whatsoever

Who will be the SEC's leading rusher?

We know it is typically someone in Gus's backfield. Will it be Roc Thomas or Javon Robinson or maybe some guy we haven't heard of yet?

The rushing title stays on the Plains in 2015. Argue all you want about who is the best - there is little doubt someone in orange and blue will be leading the pack.

Not a single Arkansas RB. Absolute garbage list. Pretty sure JWill as a senior and Alex Collins as a junior with only one lost lineman are going to rip the SEC a new butthole next year.

Every player in the list he is talking about is either 1) a UGA player, or 2) a player that UGA thought they would get out of HS (or in Kamara's case, both high school and transfer).

Will see. I think he has a higher ceiling.


This encapsulates why my fellow dawg posters feel the need to beat a dead horse (side note: dear god, please stop). Any discussion around the best RBs of 2014 ends with an LSU fan rationalizing LF because he has a higher ceiling.

Check this out - I believe that Fournette's ceiling is every bit as high as Chubb's, if not higher. Chubb's vision is ahead of LF's at this point, but I think LF is ahead physically.

In 2014, Chubb was just plain better. You know those two good games LF had at the end of the year? Those are the kind of games that Chubb had nearly every game out. Personally, I am glad Fournette found a groove because he seemed way too into his own hype at the beginning of the season (see: Sam Houston game). The SEC is better when player like Fournette elevate their games to their full potential. I'm very excited to see how all of the backs mentioned (Henry/Hurd/Collins/Williams/Robinson) progress over the next year or two.

Corey Grant should be #5 then, by your list.

The only thing I know is that we were starting to play well when Georgia came to Arkansas to play us; many folks picked us to win.

And Chubb destroyed us; he is better than either of our two starting backs

LF didn't bother us at all

Great point, man. We beat Arkansas and Auburn pretty badly this year, but I guess LSU must have too....
