I'm pretty confident it basically boils down to these two, although I could've forgotten someone. I think theyre pretty close and I know we have a lot of B1G posters on this board who can weigh in.

Barkley seems more elusive, although Guice has a lot of wiggle himself. Barkley also has been a better passcatcher so far, but the could be because of the offense Guice has been in and being behind Fournette. I think Guice is harder to bring down, both have top end speed. The homer in me wants to say Guice but I think both are phenomenal.

Right now, Barkley. I strictly haven't seen enough of Guice yet.

No way on Chubb or Scarborough.

Chubb lost a step for sure and Scarborough is too slow.

Guice is definitely the best, he has Barry Sanders like moves and can pull away from anybody

Never takes long for a Bama fan to post in a CFB thread unrelated to them otherwise, and say "our player x is actually better"

I'll go with the guy that averaged 7.6 ypc in the SEC vs the guy that averaged 5.5 in the Big10

A 5 or so min highlight video should be enough

When he's fully healthy I agree with this. Just look at Guice's stats vs Florida compared to Scarborough

This is the reason I posted on the MSB get some opinions outside of the SEC bubble a lot of you live in. Barkley is an outstanding talent.

Guice is easily the most impressive offensive player in college football right now.

Barkley has been the best RB in CFB the last 2 years imo

Simple way of looking at it. A) I think Penn State had a lot of OL injuries through the year, but I could be wrong. LSU graded out as the best OL in the country

B) Last year, the Big had defenses comparable or better than the SEC. Barkley faced Wisconsin, OSU, Michigan. All three better defenses than anyone Guice played against (he didn't really get any carries vs Wisconsin or Bama, he carried the load against a banged up UF squad without much success)

You do that on the Saints board too. Oh noz someone said something about Bama players!! Yeah he's slow in terms of lateral movement.
