People really need to watch Ingram's Bama highlights again. He was really good

I'm curious where Jeremy Hill would be if he hadn't left the program as a redshirt Sophomore. He was dominant in his short time (only 16 starts) and could put away the game with one play (the dagger).

Cajunbama eats TT9's veggie farts, and when he is finished he says, "please ma'am, may I 'ave some more?"

I think ESPN has it right, what say you?

1. McFadden
2. Moreno
3. Henry
4. Ingram, not sold on that
5. Fournette


While I think Ingram was a good running back, I could list off 3 or 4 backs that were better than he was.

Injuries had to have kept Gurley off the list and Chubb is at least as good as Ingram was. I would take Tre Mason over Ingram, he was literally the only offense we had in 2012 and he was over 1000 yards and over 5 ypc. Lattimore would be tough to put on the list due to his injuries too but he is also hard to deny. Felix Jones would have to be in the argument too, talk about splitting carries. He rode pine and split carries with the best running back in the last ten years and one of the best ever.

McFadden was a beast. Henry doesn't deserve to sniff this list.

I watched mcfadden highlights last night. I forgot what it was like to have a guy who actually had the chance to "take it to the house everytime he touched the ball". he was absolutely insane.

Eddie Lacy won the 2012 SEC title game with his performance in the second half alone. You don't see him on that list.

Best not taking into account injury / suspensions:
McFadden
Gurley
Fournette
Henry
Lattimore

I think Fournette might make it but that he shouldn't be on that list until his career is over. What about Lattimore?

I would move Moreno down to the #5 slot. I liked him a lot, but Fournette should probably be moved up at least a couple and after this coming season could jump to #1 on this list.

If you are asking if Gurley was more talented? Yes, probably. But he had a hard time staying on the field, while Moreno was pretty much there every game. I still think Moreno is too high, though.

I'm curious as to why everyone is riding Fournette's dick all of the sudden. Dude rushed for less than 50 yards on about 20 carries against Bama. He sucks compared to the rest. Outside of strictly rushing Ingram.
