Ware fumbled at Oregon I believe.

Lacy was a legend at dutchtown (saw him play a few times)

Richardson is heisman caliber.

I'd take LSU all day

Statistically Richardson and Lacy have more yards but I believe Ford has most yards per carry

Probably give the edge to Bama w/LSU a close second. But it's apples/oranges to compare to Gators, who are all about speed vs. power running.

I like our guys just fine, Bama's Richardson and Florida's Jeff Demps are legit

All 3 schools have 2 backs in the top 10 in the SEC. Pretty impressive.

BAMA has 148 rushes on the season for 923 6.2 YPC

We have 172 rushes for 684 4.0 YPC

Love our backs but the stats aren't even close.

Even though we've played better competition BAMA is just running the ball better right now.

Bama's first 2 backs are better, but lsu has better dept overall.

I think Richardson is the best individual back, but LSU has the best combination of RBs. Maybe the best combo in the nation.

Demps is pretty impressive, IMO
