I'm pretty confident it basically boils down to these two, although I could've forgotten someone. I think theyre pretty close and I know we have a lot of B1G posters on this board who can weigh in.

Barkley seems more elusive, although Guice has a lot of wiggle himself. Barkley also has been a better passcatcher so far, but the could be because of the offense Guice has been in and being behind Fournette. I think Guice is harder to bring down, both have top end speed. The homer in me wants to say Guice but I think both are phenomenal.

Right now, Barkley. I strictly haven't seen enough of Guice yet.

Guice is easily the most impressive offensive player in college football right now.

Barkley has been the best RB in CFB the last 2 years imo

Another year of lsu fans thinking they have the best player in the whole country. It's getting kinda sad for you guys.

Just tell us now, is Guice better than Fournette? Because you've all been telling the world that Fournette was the greatest RB of his generation since he was a senior in high school. But he never won shite. So tell us, is Guice better?

DG5 would've been the #1 drafted RB this year if he was eligible for the draft.

Barkley probably knows which way to run on a game winning play, so I'll go with him.

He's prob the best hybrid in the league though

Guice has done it longer, so Guice is the correct answer
