I feel like I'm watching ESPN. I would pick Ware over Richardson not to mention the stable. You'll see what I know, on the 5th.

I give you Ingram, Richardson and Davis, but Dyer. He won't even be a every down back in the NFL, and Lattimore has broken out this year as a special back. I don't know what you have against Ridley, but he ran for a 1,000 yards behind a bad LSU OLine that blocked nowhere near the level they are blocking this year.

When we played Bama last year what did TR do? The answer to that question is nothing. When Bama plays a tough defense like ours he struggles. Now Ware on the other hand is the type of man that will beat a defense into submission. Also if Ware did not have to share his reps with at least 3 other people his #'s would be just as good or better.

that's to bad I respect your opinion, I'm not calling you a tard my man, but sayin Ridley is an average back like I said he ran for 1,000 behind a bad LSU OLine.

Ware is good, but he is not there, yet.

What did he do? He carried 6 times for 28 yards, which was a higher YPC than Ridley. Oh, and you do remember he was backing up a Heisman trophy winner, right?

Jesus, soon you guys are going to convince yourselves you have home field advantage too.

But all of that is dictated by the line and the scheme

All things equal, Richardson is just better than any of our backs

Richardson & Lacy are better than any duo LSU can put on the field. Everyone talks about LSU having 5 backs...but how often does LSU use all 5 backs in the same game?

Averaging over 5 YPC and a 100 yards a game...
Hes getting the same amount of carries Ridley did last year, and his offensive line is worse than LSUs was.

LSU game is too fresh in your mind

As far as last year, they had arguably the best O-line the nation...his numbers would have ridiculous in 2010 with the extra 5-6 carries hes getting this year.

Well we have historically played well in BDS


but honestly I don't put too much stock in home field advantage. It is an advantage but not as big as the talking heads make it out to be. Idk I never played college ball so I could be wrong.

that is a matter of opinion, I've seen Auburns OLine this year, don't think there bad, certainly not like LSU's was last year, Ridley got a lot of yardage on his own from after contact runs. I would have been curious to see what his ypc would have been this year behind the improved runblocking.

Dyer is a different back then Ridley anyways, he is a speed back. Auburn has to open holes for him to roam, he is not gonna run over anybody.

TR gets hurt. What then? I'll take LSU.



LSU

Ware, 128 carries, 512 yards, 4.0 ypc, 6 TD's
Ford, 70 carries, 441 yards, 5.58 ypc, 6 TD's
Blue, 57 carries, 252 yards, 4.41 ypc, 4 TD's

Total: 255 carries, 1205 yards, 4.75 ypc, 16 TD's


Bama

Richardson, 149 carries, 989 yards, 6.64 ypc, 17 TD's
Lacy, 58 carries, 465 yards, 8.02 ypc, 5 TD's
Fowler, 47 carries, 329 yards, 7.0 ypc, 3 TD's

Total: 254 carries, 1783 yards, 7.02 ypc, 25 TD's


You guys take who you want, I'm going with Bama's own stable.

And before you guys talk about level of competition, the splits are about the same vs. SEC teams.

LSU hasn't played Ole Miss yet, Ole Miss has a lot to do with those "splits".

so level of competition does have something to do with it.

All of the Bama fans are getting upset. The Tiger's are the truth you'll see. Please don't forget to come back to our post with your elephant tale between your legs on the 6th of November.

Richardson with Blue as a backup. Nothing against ours, but TR is that good.
