depends on what you are talking about.

I mean, LSU fans have faith in their QB situation despite the struggles of the past four years.


I wonder if that's because the players that struggled are gone?

I don't see why Alabama fans can't have faith in our RBs, given that we replaced Glen Coffee and Mark Ingram with success


they can and should

Excuse me. Third round. The point is, we weren't suppose to replace him. Then Ingram couldn't be replaced.

I dont think anyone doubts Alabama will have success. Will Alabama have a better set of RB's this year than LSU has? Nope.

When in the Hell did I say that. Confidence in replacing Trent Richardson, like we did Coffee and Ingram, is a far cry from producing a Heisman RB. Good God.


That retardation is what got this hijack started. Take it up with your brethren.

The feature back in an offense that has a game manager type at QB will always get Hiesman consideration be it Wisconsin,Oklahoma or Alabama

Or they didn't have an exceptional back so they spread it around.

Bama's not gonna rotate four backs every game so there's no point arguing. I'll say Bama's top two will produce more because Saban likes to pound the rock and UA's OL will be bad arse.

Everyone feel free to shot me if you don't like my opinion.



Didn't Saban have a 3 RB system when he was at LSU? I can easily see the RB split being something like this.

Lacy 1200 yards
Fowler 550 yards
Hart 450 yards
Yeldon 300-350 yards

Lacy will be the feature guy but the other three RBs will rotate in and out and split carries as the backups to Lacy.

When they played together people loved to say Richardson was better. When Ingram actually left, we heard a lot of chatter about how they were only good in tandem. I have the bookmarks still if you so desire.

Who in the hell said that

shite, I hated the Ingram pick for the Saints because I thought he wasn't even the best RB at Alabama the year before.

You know this isn't the case, but you might catch a few with the bait.

More like there were 4 good ones so they spread it around. We didn't need one work horse. We have others that can spread out the PT.

Certain posters in this thread could be made to look like fricking idiots if you really want to go bump some of their posts about TR circa September 2011.

That first post I made really caused quite the uproar. Then I got busy at work. It's amazing how the truth can rile up unbelievers. It's ok, I bookmarked this thread for future use.

Lacy/Yeldon with Hart and Fowler mixed in for flavor. Will taste better than any LSU RB Jumbalaya yall can put together.

See yall in Miami, Roll Damn Tide.

I honestly, prefer we don't run 4 RBs at the same time. I like for our backs to get in a groove and just start running over people. However, 'Bama will probably use all four. Our talent is too good to keep them on the sidelines.

I asked for stats and links, which I have yet to see. You know that you aren't going to get out of an argument with me that easily.


Bookmark away, hell, print a copy of this thread and frame it.
