i think Scott is better. Moreno just had the benefit of playing against a busted defense.

depends on what style you want. For my money I would take Charles Scott, but you can't deny Moreno's shiftiness.

Moreno.

Moreno had more YPG both before and after the game. Scott is a good downhill runner, but Moreno is a more complete (not to mention faster) back. Moreno is a first rounder in the draft. Scott.....maybe third round?

I have never seen a LB'er run with Scott but I have with Moreno.

Moreno will be a higher draft pick.

It's not even a question I'd take Moreno easily.

Have you ever seen a D-2 safety run him down?

they are both great backs, but i hadn't watched moreno play very much. i was impressed with his shiftiness, but mostly his balance. several times, it looked like he was down only to find out he picked up 4 or 5 more yards by scooting along with his hand on the ground.

Moreno.

But Scott with our oline and UGA with their line is pretty close.

moreno will probably fall in the draft b/c he lacks size and speed.

You're biased though

He put up a decent amount of yards last year.

their numbers are pretty smiliar this yr.

Moreno 6.2ypc
Scott 6.5 ypc

for someone who runs primarily between the tackles, Scott's numbers are more impressive. The NFL will prefer RB's like Scott who can get you the tough yards.

Moreno no doubt. Scott has performed for all games except the ones that counted. Sucked arse against Florida and was average against Georgia. Moreno was ready to break one to the immature student section that thought they needed to call him once again. No comparison.

MORENO. No fricking comparison. I would have taken Hester any day instead of Moreno. Hester performed regardless of opponent. What did Scott do against Kentucky to get a first, oh yeh choked. Dude is ok, but not a gamer. Sorry it is what it is.

I think it's apples and oranges. I like Moreno's shiftiness and Scotts explosion. Scott can't do what Moreno does and ditto in reverse.

Many NFL teams would prize Scott over Moreno. That is pretty hard to deny. But, then again, there are some that would prefer Moreno.

Translation; who is better is dependent entirely upon the needs of the coach you're asking.
