Just checked it out, but those numbers for Cannon don't include bowl stats.

ETA: Scratch that, they do.

Cannon, he could do it all, and did it all in college and the professional.

In real life Dalton Hillard. Forget the stats.

It's between:

Billy Cannon
Dalton Hilliard
Kevin Faulk

If I had to pick one, Faulk.

Hilliard........He had an amazing amount of yards while still sharing carries with Garry James........



Hilliard is my pick also. The type team a back plays on makes a difference.
As a freshman Hilliard had better stats than Bo Jackson.

Hilliard quickly established himself as the Tigers' top offensive threat, rushing for 901 yards and 11 TDs and adding five more scores receiving in 1982. His 16 total TDs and 92 points broke the NCAA freshman records that had been set two years earlier by Herschel Walker.

Dalton is my favorite all-time RB.

Love me some Faulk, too. Beat Houston by himself.

Collins would have been the best one if he didn't get in trouble, easy. But he did get in trouble, so Alexander or Faulk.

Cecil the Diesel was the most impressive talent of them all. I am not going to call him the greatest for obvious reasons. My answer- Kevin Faulk. If I were able to pick one to come back- J. Hill.

I remember before Cecil got hurt I was watching two teams from out west play and the announcers were saying that the best player in the country so far that year was Cecil Collins from LSU. I think he got hurt the next weekend. ?? oh what could have been!

Anyway, The Diesel gets my vote.
