That's cool. But I'm talking 2 backs.

I don't agree with that in the least. I think Harris and Jacobs have been much better and explosive than most imagined. Scarbrough hasn't been electric, but even he has done his job when he has come in.

Hurd and Kamara.
Outside the SEC, Perine and Mixon at OU have been flying under the radar, but have put up good numbers this year.

He was the highest rated recruit and looked better in mop up duty last year so most expected him to be the guy this season.
Harris surpassed him and Jacobs is even better than we were told by the people who "discovered" him (he was a three star who went under the radar until very late in the recruiting cycle).

Auburn and Alabama have the best RB duo so far this season.
LSU would be in consideration, but Auburn broke Fournette so theyre out.

Guice & Fournette

Bo has been used quite a bit early on as the short yardage guy but has been stepping it up the last couple of games. If he continues to improve we will have a very good group of RB's.
No Derrick Henry back there but who is? So far they as a group have done well.

I could go for a nice glass of apple juice. Fournette shoulda went to bama tho. I feel bad for him at lsu. Such a waste of talent.

Wow. Pettway and Kerryon already over 1k yards. That's impressive. Both having missed a game.

A healthy Fournette & Guice and it isn't even close.
This. Doesn't matter if Fournette isn't healthy. Guice is better than 2 backs of any other team in the SEC. Fournette and Guice then everybody else.

They also have by far the most carries.

Very true. Amazing they could get that already with everyone knowing they were getting the ball. Even more so impressive

I guess you want everyone to mention the Auburn backs, whoever the frick they are, but this thread didn't work like you wanted.

Harris/Jacobs
Harris, Jacobs, Hurts make for a pretty solid running backfield.
Come on Bama fans. While our guys have loads of potential they're not the best in the SEC this year but they will be in the future. They so young.
Harris- Soph is showing why he was the top RB in his class. He has great combination of size, power and speed (doesn't have Elite speed but fast enough)
Jacobs- Freshman this kid is going to be a star, he has great natural RB abilities, he just know how to set up his runs, has great ability to cut in the holes. He reminds me a lot of Mark Ingram. He was a great find for Bama.
Bo - RSF he has started to look a lot better, seems like he finally is healthy. Will be interesting to watch him progress
BJ'S Emmons- Fresh- has looked really good when he's played. Another #1 RB in his class.
Next add in Hurts running at QB and it's really a nightmare for teams.
This Bama offense is one the best in the Saban Era or it will be by the end of the year, especially if Hurts continues to improve his passing game.
