Yeldon fumbles but make no mistake, the hate comes from the fact that he wears that beautiful crimson uniform.
Uh, nooooo. The hate comes from the pompous self-agrandizing cow feces you arrogant things spew at a moment's notice.
Contrary to your redneck belief system, everything Bama is not automatically the best.
It is mind-blowing the child-like sensitivity you things have when either:
a. Something even remotely negative is said about anything alashama.
b. That you actually BELEIVE all CFB fans should just fall on their collective asses in awe at anything alashama, when in actuality, you things disgust, rather than impress.
Cue the Shama things' favorite sayings, right.......wait for it......NOW
'Wow, he mad.'
'Butthurt'
'Cecil, hand me over one of them thar cold ones from the cooler bra.'

LSU fans loved to talk about how overrated Eddie Lacy was. Now that he has torn up the NFL, they are backtracking.
Lacy benefits a lot from his system. Not saying he isn't a good RB, but a lot of RBs would have similar production in Green Bay where they run 3 or 4 wide 85% of the time.
Granted, he proved he can still be productive in a "normal" NFL scheme after Rodgers went down, but his touches went up and yards stayed about the same or went down.

If this is how we are doing things...
Bama fans love to hold up outliers and refer to "LSU fans, Auburn fans, etc." when confronted with a less than flattering opinion by an individual.

Phil Steele just released his Preseason All-America list with Yeldon on the 2nd team putting him in the top 4 RB's nationally.
He was on the 1st team of Sporting News Preseason All-America team with Todd Gurley. LINK
CBSsports had Yeldon as their 3rd RB off the board in thier first 2015 mock draft. LINK
Athlon Sports has Yeldon as their 2nd best running back in 2015. LINK
NFL.com writer Bryan Fischer actually took Yeldon as the 1st running back taken in a college football fantasy draft for all college players. Gurley was taken with the next pick. LINK
NFL Draft Geek has Yeldon as the #2 RB in the country for next season. LINK
NFL Futures has Yeldon rated as their #3 RB. LINK

I love you MetryTyger. Don't let anyone try and change you.

As a UGA fan I can say it's because Bama fans adamantly refused to believe Gurley was better after their freshman season. Now everybody knows Gurley is better, so it's fun to rip Yeldon. Some Bama fans were talking like he would be a Heisman candidate before the year started last year. El oh el

The rant always tries to put Mike Davis over Yeldon, while TJY had more yards, more touchdowns, and a high YPC last year
Mike Davis was hurt the last month or so of the season.

The guy has just about the exact same career rushing stats as Todd Gurley and has performed better in conference play than Gurley has

It is physically impossible for some LSU fans to give Bama players the credit they deserve.

That's why the YPC stat was invented. It's not Yeldon's fault the other two can't stay healthy.

Yeldon benefits in both YPC stat and health by having RBs that are equal or greater talent than him getting carries
