Because he juked one Ole Miss defender?lol

Richardson is averaging 125 yards per game, which, I'm sorry, doesn't back up the hype that's being made about him.

150+ maybe, 175+ definitely, but 125 is good, and surely ain't anything close to game-changing, or difference-making. I mean, the kid ran for a whopping 77 yards last week against a crappy Tennessee run defense.

He's going to get exposed tomorrow.

LSU's defense is a little better than Tennessee's, I'm told.

Because when he jumps in water he doesn't get wet. The water gets Trent Richardson.

Well, he is possibly the first RB to be drafted next year. He's the best there is right now.

He, along with his offensive line, are very very good and they basically do what they want. The hype is warranted.

I am buying that TR is the truth. But I am agreeing with the other poster that he hasn't showed up every week. Plus he has Lacy a human battering ram wearing down the defense with him.

He is a great back but i am not sure he is the best in college football. He is if not 1 top 3 though.

If you are curious who the other Backs are.........James from Oregon.....Grahm from Pitt..........Lattimore South carolina. I know 2 out of the 3 are hurt. and James is not a pro back were the other 2 are.

His line is the reason he's averaging even 125. They're world class. But hearing from all the experts that are going with Bama (at a 4:1 ratio), 90% cite Trent Richardson as the main reason why.

If TR were to go down, especially now that we've learned Lacy isn't anywhere close to 100%, then what for Bama?

I sincerely love our chances tomorrow night.

that has nothing to do with what your talking about

if anything it means he's their team and the hype is worthy

Talked to my good friend from HS that plays LB and played them this year and he said TR is by far the best player hes ever played against. said he as like talckling a boulder

Trent Richardson won't get anywhere close to 100 yards tomorrow unless they run him 25+ times.

The guy has great after-contact running ability, balance, and vision. I know he is a bruiser that can keep pounding out three yards and the worst part is his ability to break it any play. He is the real deal no doubt.

The guy is really good. But he will be running against a GREAT defense tomorrow. He goes for less than 100. We win by 14.

He only has 125 yds/game because he only needs to play two quarters a game most games. I do agree he is not unstoppable but he is very good.

Pollack went with Bama because he said TR was the best player on the field.

Desmond immediately countered that the best player on the field is the Honey Badger.

Just food for thought.

some of you simply amaze me..you think this LSU team is the goddamn 49ers..

im not saying he is going to run roughshot through your defense..because your defense is really good..im saying it is hard to keep a guy like that from getting his..

i say he has 29 attempts 115 yards.. 1 TD..
