Thunder and Lightning win on name alone but Arky has a dog in this fight. Check out the 3 year numbers. Bush and White have the better supporting cast as well.
(USC)

-Bush: (521 yards, 3 TDs, 314 receiving, 4 TDs, 1 KOR TD)
-White: (754 yards, 13 TDs, 15 receiving, 1 TD)
2004
-Bush: (908 rushing, 6 TDs, 509 receiving 7 TDs, 2 PR TD)
-White: (1103 rushing, 15 TDs, 97 receiving, 2 TDs)
2005
-Bush: (1740 rushing, 16 TDs, 478 receiving 2 TDs, 1 PR TD)
-White: 1302 rushing, 24 TDs, 219 receiving, 2 TDs
(ARKANSAS)
2005
-McFadden: (1113 rushing, 11 TDs, 52 receiving)
-Jones: (626, 3 TDs, 100 receiving, 1 KOR TD)

-Bush & White Totals:
7,960 yards (rushing & receiving)

Bush and White are playing with another Heisman candidate in Matt Leinart and one of the top defense in CFB while McFadden and Jones have Casey Dick lol.

Carnell Williams and Ronnie Brown.

Oshit another great Duo ^ might’ve been a better comparison.

To answer the OP, I’ll take Darren McFadden and Felix Jones in this scenario.
Arkansas had worse coaching and played in the SEC. Arkansas also had a worse supporting cast, allowing opposing teams to key on said running backs.

Give me McFadden and Jones.

Also had the Untouchables at Virginia Tech with Kevin Jones and Lee Suggs. Never put up the combined numbers like those others listed, but were fun to watch.
Pertaining to the question, McFadden and Jones for the other reasons you listed. You had Leinart, Dwayne Jarrett and the lesser Steve Smith on those USC offenses. You knew what was coming with Arkansas and they still ran all over

We knew who was getting the ball.
And they still had 487 yards rushing
McFadden also had a TD pass

Arkansas threw 11 passes that game. That same year Tebow had 7 TD's against us. We were the Heisman highlight reel that year.

That 07 LSU-SC game was also the origination of the Mad Hatter if my mental timeline adds up with the over the shoulder fake field goal
Posted on 8/2/20 at 12:15 pm to NamariTiger
Arkansas also had Peyton Hillis
Posted on 8/2/20 at 12:28 pm to NamariTiger
5) Mcfadden & Jones
4) Bush & White
3) Brown & Cadillac
2) Pony Express
1) Thurman Thomas & Barry Sanders

They did the same thing against LSU.
McFadden went over 200 yards, had 3 TD runs, and was 3/6 passing with an added TD.
Jones and Hillis both averaged over 8 yards per carry, with Hillis adding 62 yards and 2 TDs receiving.
That backfield was absolutely incredible.
2007 Arkansas vs LSU highlights
Both teams end up scoring in the 50’s in this game
Holy shite, LSU’s 4th down call on their final drive in regulation is bonkers

I'd throw in the Minnesota duo Maroney and Barber but nobody can best a duo that has McFadden.

LenDale White was a criminally underrated college football player.
Posted on 8/2/20 at 12:38 pm to NamariTiger
Reggie was the best of those listed but as a duo give me McFadden and Jones.
Posted on 8/2/20 at 12:48 pm to MickeyLikesDags21
Bush/White because 99 TD in three years is NUTS.
The only thing close is trio of Montee Ball, James White and Melvin Gordon

Alabama had Ingram, Trent, Lacy, and Fowler all playing at the same time. But That isn’t the point of the thread.

Doc Blanchard and Glenn Davis, Army
Mr. Inside and Mr. Outside both won the Heisman, and led Army to three consecutive national titles
