Ball

He is also way more durable and will have a better pro career.

Ball was more productive, but Ingram was better. He won the National Title, the Heisman, and played against better defenses than Ball has ever played against.

Ingram had one of the all time great rushing seasons in SEC history. Hard to argue against him.

Jamal Lewis is another RB that had a great year, back in 97.

Ball has 900 career carries I think its safe to say MANY MANY runningbacks have had more and don't have half as many tds


Only 14 have more career rushes than Ball actually.... And after today only 7 have more rushing attempts.
