dont get me wrong, our running game was solid last year, but a few of the guys were disappointments. I think we are having this discussion because no one has stood out, when in fact all 4 or 5 of the guys have the talent to stand out.

Is it a good thing, or a bad thing? 2012 will tell.

I thought last year Blue was our best RB. Ware definitely needs to get in shape, as does Hilliard.

Not sure if serious??

Who in LSU's backfield is a dissappointment??

Hilliard needs to get in shape?? By who's standards is Hilliard out of shape?

I think everyone would agree that we are having this debate because we have 5 horses in the backfield that could start at just about any other school in the country.

Ware was a huge disappointment.

Ford's inability to run between the tackles was worrisome

Alabama made Hilliard look slow compared to some of the shite defenses he tore up when he came on the scene. No need to be as big as he is. He can do the same thing at 225# than he can do at 245#. No one is going to want to hit him either way. But he can improve his speed & agility.

they are good, but they are not elite like that. We dont have a Knile Davis or Eddie Lacy or Lattimore in our backfield.

Not that we need a true feature back. We proved that last year. But i think if we did have that standout, we'd ride him
