Also of his 32 rushing TDs 20 were 6 yds or less with 10 being 1 yard runs.
You expect RB's not to get the ball within the 10? TR has a huge advantage with the fact the QB constantly dumps the ball off to him yet Wilson actually has a primary receiver in Nick Toon. Also against their 3 best and worst opponents opponents: Should be noted that I picked Ball's game against MSU in the regular season because TR didn't play in the SECCG. And picked North Texas to be worse than Kent State because at least they were decent enough to hold TR's yardage down (both teams went 7-5 against pretty shitty competition)

BEST
TR (LSU, Penn State, Arky)- 66 carries 326 yards 4.94 YPC 2 TDs (both against PSU)....12 receptions 184 yards 1 TD

Ball (Nebrask, Penn Stae, MSU)- 73 carries 422 yards 5.78 YPC 9 TDs....3 receptions 39 yards 1 TD

Worst
TR (Ole Miss, Georgia Southern, North Texas) 60 carries 525 yards 8.75 YPC 9 TDs...4 receptions 35 yards 1 TD

Ball (Oregon State, Northern Illinois, South Dakota) 53 carries 297 yards 5.6 YPC 6 TDs...4 receptions 53 yards 0 TDs

The level of competition argument is gone, clearly Ball performs at a higher level on bigger stages.

Wisconsin put up tons of points. like someone said, 10 of his TD's were from the 1 yard line. I feel like Monte Ball is a guy that you could replace pretty easily. I've never really been that impressed with Ball. he's a good back. but I think alot of people could do what he did.

No one has done more for their team and win games like trex. He always shows up when it matters.

HB
RG3
TR

1- RG3
2- MBall over TR due to him breaking Barry's TD record but if I had to chose one to be on my team it would be TRich
3- TRich
4- RWilson
5-TM7/ RWoods

I hope TR wins but I think RG3 is the most outstanding player this year

Homerism at its finest. If anyone could do what he did, why has Barry Sanders held his record since 1988?

That comment was dumb.

how many times did you see Ball run and think "Not many people can make that play!"

by your logic, he's one of the best backs since Barry Sanders. but he's not. he's an above average back.

what you're saying is that no one else could have done what Ball did this year. not true. that's why I said he's replaceable.

No, what I am saying is that no one else did what Ball did this year, or any year since 1988.

If other RBs could have done it, why didn't they? Why didn't TR come close?

To say that he is replaceable is dumb on many levels.

I watched Ball as much as I could this year and the guy was unbelievable and made plays that alot of backs dont do. I think its pretty even on who is better. Ball is alot different player than last year. He lost around 25lbs in the off season and you can tell that it has helped tremendously.

All I know is that I drafted Ball and Richardson in one of my fantasy leagues and kicked arse all season.
