YPC against whom? Harris hasn’t played a single run defense worth a damn. Spiller has padded his stats versus three inept teams. CEH has produced most of his stats versus teams like Auburn and Florida.

CEH is a good back and Florida's a good team but their run defense is nowhere near stellar...in yards per rush given up, Ole Miss is better, and even Tennessee and Duke are on par with the Gators. And, if I recall correctly, I think UF was also missing both of their starting DEs against LSU for either the whole game or most of it...

If you take away LSU's 9 ypc in that one game, UF is #3 in the conference behind UGA and LSU.

YPC is not a good stat to find value at RB. If anything it’s a good stat to talk about the offensive lines. Show me there yards after contact numbers.

Zuniga played into the 3rd quarter, he's a DE.

Grennard missed the game, he's a rush linebacker.

Interestingly enough the LSU game really skews their rush defense a good bit.

In all their games, they average giving up 127 rushing yards and 3.73 ypc. Against LSU they gave up 218 rushing yards and 9.08 ypc.

Take out the LSU game and they average giving up 99 yards per game rushing and 3.26 ypc. Pretty decent difference when you consider that's just removing 1 game from a 9 game sample size. Only 1 other team managed over 3.7 ypc against UF this season, that was South Carolina @ 5.05.

It is fair to assume that ANY post by these so called aggie fans are backhanded troll attempts.

s SEC, Min 60 carries

1. CEH : 6.70
2. Najee Harris : 5.89
3. D'Andre Swift : 5.85
4. Kylin Hill : 5.37
5. Tavien Feaster : 5.26






Coming into the season I think most LSU fans expected CEH be the main guy early on but steadily lose carries as Emery and Davis-Price settled in. We were wrong. CEH has been balling in the new Flying Shrimp Boat offense.

(I wouldn't want anyone to miss an easy opportunity to rip LSU fans.)

Kylin Hill is a top 3 RB this year. He just has a coach who doesn't know his arse from a hole in the ground.




I wouldn't say that, Kylin is the only 1000 yard rusher in the SEC so far.
