These are the clear no brainers IMO
1940's Steve Van Buren
1950's Billy Cannon
1960's Jerry Stovall
1970's Charles Alexander
1980's Dalton Hilliard
1990's Kevin Faulk
Here is where I need some help:
2000's - Hester (if I wanted a win - Toefield for the score.)
2010 - Discuss could be Buga BUT... Guice may actually end up better...

Hester was not the best back of the 2000s

Hmm.... I know he gets most of the attention. But I think an argument can be made for Jimmy Taylor.

I agree with most of that. As much as I like Hester, I would not have him on the list. 2010's - LF7 so far. Guice TBD.

I'd go with Addai personally. Addai was even harder/ tougher imho than Hester. I will never forget watching him singlehandedly wreck UF in Gainesville . Out brute backs love wrecking Florida. Otherwise that looks about right.

Buga is the most overrated back in LSU history...maybe NCAA history. Yeah sure, he destroyed Syracuse....demolished an Auburn defense that wasn't worth shite and of course ran through that soft arse Aggie D. J.D. Moore was the reason LF7 looked so great. Watch every run with Moore and every run without Moore. night and day. Guice is far more talented and it is not even close.

Broussard was the best in the 2000's. Had he not gotten hurt...

Should be any number of backs rather than Hester.

2000s Domanick Davis/Joseph Addai IMO

2010 Buga/Guice I wouldn't put Guice up there with him yet until he has a breakout season this year.

IMHO, Charlie4Heisman was the best RB I've seen at LSU. Was a years-ahead-of-his-time combination of speed & power.

Wasn't around to see the guys in the 60s & earlier, sounds like Cannon was very similar.
