I admit, I'm slacking. I don't keep up with the rest of CFB like I use to, but I'm gonna start. I, however, never slack on LSU. In relation to the rest of the nation, where do Ware & Ford rank, IYO?

1 game. Not sure yet, but they have potential to be in the top 20

Not quite, but they will still be a top 15 national duo, imo.

Both these guy are real bangers and run as hard as any. Trent Richardson is still the best back in the country, yet these two are just as effective.

13 games left,..900 yards each. 70 yards a game seems realistic to me

I think we still have to see how they pan out, but i would think top 10... Wisconsin probably has the #1 RB duo currently

Richardson needs more than 37 yards a game to be considered the best in my opinion.

neither are up there as top rbs in the nation, but the question was where do they rank as a unit...and to the ppl who said top 20 by the end of the year im confused...you can name 20 teams right now that have a better 1-2 combo than this??

Yeah, that's what I'm getting at. I don't want to be a homer, and I admit I'm not as up to date on the rest of CFB as I use to be, but I'd be surprised if there were 20 teams that have a better 1-2 punch like Ware & Ford.

Besides Trent Richardson from Alabama and Marcus Lattimore from South Carolina, we have the 2 best RBs in the SEC. Last night i thought we used them perfect. They are both very similar backs. They can both be work horses, but both are quick and fast enough to break off a long run.

Agreed. But he did have 3 TDs and only 13 carries. Plus, they destroyed their opponent.

Statistically ahead of Oregon's. That's about all I can really say.
