You're old and senile.

I retract my statement about Billy Cannon not having any carries on the '97 team.

He would have had the same amount of carries as Kendall Cleveland.

Collins (had he stayed healthy), Faulk and Mealey were better than Cannon and would have had more carries.

Cannon was special, but you can't compare him to modern day athletes like Faulk, Mealey, Fournette, Jeremy Hill or Harvey Williams.

Sure you can, you just have to adjust for advancements in training, equipment, technology, medical care, and how good respective o-lines were between the eras they played.

On the other hand, it's a stupid fricking argument that no one should care about.
