Because Oklahoma is known for their incredible rushing defense.



You still didn’t acknowledge the fact that both Curry and TDP did not have excellent YPCs, and that LSU lost 78% of their OL starts.

I doubt 4 of the top 5 backs play for those 4 schools.

Sorry for the ignorance, but feel free to educate me. Does Leach use RB out of the backfield a lot? And if so how is Hill’s pass catching and route running?



Yes, he uses them big time as pass catcher.
Max Borghi had 86 catches for 597 yards and 5 TDs last year.


Hill is a very good receiving back. He will be at the top of the league as far as APY.

CEH


I think we all know that is BS. CEH was the best back in the country and its not even debatable. One lead of the best CFB team in history, the other lost to the best CFB team in history.

I agree with Harris at #1 easily


I believe White for UGA will be higher than #5

I wasn’t ranking them in any particular order, just listing them...

I can’t fricking believe that Alabama somehow convinced Najee to come back




Really didn't take much convincing. Najee wants his degree before he leaves, and he thinks he can be a first round pick with a big season.

Didnt expect to see em but Dameon Pierce is a bowling ball of a back that breaks big runs

Just watch hopefully becomes thunder and lightning with him and Lingard or Nayquan

best OL in the country.



If you truly watched any LSU games from last year, you'd know our O-Line was far from the best. They were average-good at best. Even majority of the LSU fanbase was surprised that they got the trophy for best Offensive Line group.

4.6 YPC and 5.0 YPC for a freshman and redshirt freshman arent bad. Especially since they mainly played in garbage time with the backup O-Line.

I think Smoke and Rodriguez will end up really pushing Rose with Wilson back. Opens things up and they'll be behind an elite OL.

Let them think what they want. RB was a big question mark each of the last 2 years. Brosette, who had never started had 1,000 yds. CEH came out of nowhere and was a beast----a hair away from the SEC rushing title.

I don't know which back, but one of them will be top 5 in the SEC. Especially in this offense.

I am very hopeful that John Emery breaks out this year. As a smallish man clyde threw a hell of a shadow last year. I'm honestly not sold on Curry at this point although I'd love for him to prove me wrong. TDP is a bruising, punishing type of back who I fully expect to get his.
If the game slows down for Emery a bit I can easily see him as the next special RB to come out of LSU.

If you’re going to put an LSU running back in the top 10, I think it has to be Davis-Price. He had 100+ more yards and six touchdowns to none for Curry. John Emery had more yards and four touchdowns. Both guys should make a decent leap in year two Wow Carrie is in year three.
