Alan Faneca

As good as Faulk, Mealey, etc. were, Faneca was a key to that run game. He was one of the best guards I've ever watched.

LSU rushing during the Faulk years:

1995 (Faulk/Faneca both freshmen) 4.42 YPC
1996 (Faulk/Faneca both sophomores) 4.76 YPC
1997 (Faulk/Faneca both juniors) 5.42 YPC
1998 (Faulk senior/no Faneca) 4.29 YPC

Obviously more factors went into that, but the year after Faneca left, our YPC dropped by 1.13 yards. That dude was pretty good.
