Like some have already said, it's hard to put players coming off injuries in the top spots even though they're the two with the most "production" returning. But that happens when you don't really have much else behind them.


1. Hilliard - If LSU would actually run him more often, but that's a good problem when you have solid production from you're other backs

2. Lacy- Same thing but he's just going to be sharing a little more than he thought with Yeldon, Fowler, and Hart on his heels.

3. McCalebb - Returning for Auburn and has the most experience.

4&5. Lattimore and Davis - Because of what I stated above.

In 2011 as the primary offense for USC...Lattimore rushed

No one was stacking the box when Mallet was torching their secondary.
Marcus Lattimore has more career rushing yards (2015), total yards (2609), and total touchdowns (30) than Davis.

Sure I am. This is one part of that research. Your voice can be heard and considered by the voters. You are welcome.


How is this going to work since Dyer can't automatically be number one this year? Also, I move, as I did last year, to have "Spencer Ford," or "Michael Ware," should you prefer, to be amalgamated into one running back for the purposes of the poll.

Please provide more information on this nominee.



Made it over 1/4th of the way to a 1000 season in the Ark game alone...Broke Tibia last year...Coming back at "100%"

He was a 5* coming out of HS and ranked right behind Trent Richardson

Not sure what this means. You obviously don't follow South Carolina. ML wasn't even running the ball when he was injured. We have an elite stable of RBs behind ML.

I predict some bitching about Mark Ingram.


Hey....... Ingram scored the first TD of the NFL preseason. No bitching right now.

I'm still pouring through the committee regulations looking for a loophole to get Dyer on the list.

I don't see the humor? Based on the criteria he is without a doubt in the top 5 to start the season. FTR he also had more td's in 1 game vs Bama than your entire team had in 2+.

McCallebb has more yards rushing than every back listed in this thread with the exception of Michael and averages more yards per carry than everyone except Lacy.
