It has got to be Harvey Williams...wasnt appreciated when he played or now really. What say ye?
I disagree. Harvey was a huge name at LSU, who was a starter from day one, basically. He didn't have anyone behind him who was as well-rounded from Martin to Fuller to Slip.
I sometimes think he was overrated. From '89-90, he really didn't do a whole lot and he wasn't running behind Albergamo and Andolsek anymore, either. He looked bad in certain games - especially bigger games like Florida of '87, where he did score the GW TD, but also fumbled diving into the endzone in the 1st half. He basically stunk against Georgia that same year. I know he got hurt in the Superdome at the end of '87, but that was his last defining season as a Tiger.
That said, he is in the top 10 as far as LSU RB's of all time. He shined a lot, but he also got arrogant at times. All in all, he was a great player, but I think he gets too much props at times.

Andrew Whitworth...has the most starts ever in LSU and SEC history and the 2nd most ever in NCAA history. He did not give a sack his senior and yet he rarely gets memtioned among the greatest LSU linemen.
