They both run with passion I cant say one more than the other. I like both of thier passion for delivering the hit.


I think passion is the wrong word. I think Hester ran with a purpose, which was to move the chains.

Scott runs angry. His purpose is to move the chains and take a few defenders with him on the way.

Just curious, can you tell me how many times Keiland has fumbled the ball since coming to LSU?

There is a big difference so far this year in that Scott often times doesn't get down enough as he is getting hit (ie protect himself) like Hester did. He also doesn't get that 1-2 yards inside when the O-line is held up.

It's also true that you've been dead wrong about the LSU RB's the last couple of years. Wrong about Hester. Wrong about Keiland Williams. And, despite jumping on the Charles Scott bandwagon, wrong about him, too.


Time for another crystal ball there, Nostradumbass.

Hester is better at reading the hole


I might have agreed with this statement last year, but Scott's vision has been very good this season.

I believe Scott is a much better back, but to say he is better in every way is crazy. Scott does run a little high and if he is hit behind/at the line of scrimage he does not get the 1-3 yards that Hester got. Make no mistake about it I rather have Scott back there but he has not been superior in EVERY way.

Scott seems to have great 0-60 speed, but he tops out quick, hence the reason he's been run down on a few plays that other running backs may have scored on.

Scott is a freak of nature regardless.
