So... SDS ranks UGA running game 4th in the SEC....

quote:

He (Hurd) was one of the SEC’s finest freshman at any position a year ago, rushing for 899 yard and five touchdowns, including four 100-yard games (three against SEC foes and the fourth in a bowl win over Iowa). He’ll be complemented by Kamara, the Vols’ only healthy scholarship back for much of the spring.

Seems legit

In all seriousness, those teams should have good running games but our combination of OL and the RBs we have should put us in the top 2 (not that this list matters). Arkansas will always be strong in the running game too under Beliema.

I'm actually interested to see how Auburn's offense changes with Johnson. He seems to have a strong arm but, as much as people say Malzahan has a high flying offense, at the end of the day he seems to prefer to relentlessly pound teams on the ground and find ways to throw off of that. Wonder how all that changes without a running QB.

And LSU should be on there, ahead of Alabama too in my opinion. Fournette is gonna be really good once he gets more experience.

I think Chubb is All-World but he had only 12 yards in the 2nd half(including overtime)

Can someone explain this?

IMO the fumble at the 1 got into Chubb's head. Being self-conscious about not fumbling the ball results in fewer broken tackles, not finishing runs, etc.

Also give credit to Tech's DL for taking it to our OL in the second half

So our #1 RB is the only returning 1st Team All SEC RB. Our backup is a five star RB who excelled whenever he saw the field last year. We return the best OL in the entire conference.

Tennesee's #1 RB did not reach 1,000 yards even though he started all season. Tennessee's backup RB didn't make Bama's squad and has yet to take a snap in D-1. Tennessee returns their OL, but they were a train wreck last year.

So of course they rank them ahead of us.

SDS just wants hits.

I agree, it's pathetic but I have come to expect stuff like this from a chicken shite sites like SDS.

Rig..you seem to have some background in journalism based on your posts. Is there some inner draw to put a unique perspective out there that overrides common sense. I mean...do you think people that write this shite generally have a bias and believe what they say...or are they doing it to be contrarian and drive discussion?

The short answer to your question is that the people you are asking about are not journalists. They were pretty good at writing papers in high school and college, but they aren't journalists.

And absolutely they are driving traffic. That's their business model. Same as a newspaper writes headlines to sell newspapers.. back when newspapers existed.

That's why places like Bleacher Report make everything a slideshow instead of just a story. Each slide you click through is another "hit". It's 100% intentional.

Chubb ran that many yards over spring break training for next season...
