    yEiGh!!!..Glad to see it, one of my all-time favorite players. Definitely top 3. Sony also having a good year. Interesting to see that Swift’s YPC highest on team, just needs to hang on to the ball. Gonna be another monster backfield next year with Zamir coming in. Thinks we get James Cook….

    Now imagine if he wasn’t splitting carries with 4 other running backs. Great problem to have.

    The #1, two top 10 and 3 top 25 RBs. Not bad at all. And the backups that rotate in are not much of a drop off. 🙂

    Very efficient.

    There’s a coupla noteworthy things to be gleaned from those numbers.
    — Nobody’s close to 150 yards per game
    — By the 6th game a good 1980’s tailback woulda had 150 carries.

      I think the fact that we spread the carries around helps us continue to recruit top running backs. There are only so many carries/hits these guys can take, and our rotation saves them for the NFL while we still get great running attack.

      The # 1 would have 250 if he toted the rock 35 times per game.

    Funny how much press the kid from PSU gets for Heisman, yet his numbers aren’t much better than Chubb’s. Yet Chubb gets no Heisman talk that I’ve heard.

    Just ~540 yards to go for SECOND on the alltime SEC career rushing leaderboard. Just ~250 for 4th place.

    Good Luck Nick.

    Anyone know why Pettway and Johnson aren’t on the list?

    I had an eerie feeling yesterday. One that I cannot explain. Confidence that we were going to win and win big. Have not felt that in many years. It’s great to feel like a bamar fan has for the last near decade. Roe tide…… i mean go dawgs!

    That can’t be right. We were told Gui e was the best RB in the conference.

    Yesterday we were griping that the final score was going to end up “only” 45-14. One of my buddies said, “Jeez y’all, we sound like Bama fans.”

      I talked to some Bama fans that were bored by the margins of victory, at least until Saturday night. I think they messed their drawers when ATM made a run at the Tide. The only team that can beat Bama is Bama and they seemed to have had a bad night. Their receiver Foster #1 was awful and could have caused them a big problem. So let’s not get to feeling too high and mighty because we could have a bad game too (I’m talking about JAX).

        YOU TAKE THAT BACK…is it too much to expect at least one competent game in JAX sometime this decade? (and I count some of those games we won by sheer talent level alone)

          If our team loses in Jax it will have been a mind blowing performance by the Florida offense and a complete derp fest from 4 of our running backs and 2 tight ends, a qb, and Godwin. I may get struck by lighting but I’m pretty sure the Florida game is going to be the game our team is the most intense, focused, and fired up all season. My biggest fear are the personal fouls, targeting, sideline warnings.

          BUT, Florida may want an epic beat down to give them an excuse to fire errbody and start over, so, if the refs let things slide we will know the fix is in. I kind of hope they keep mr shark meat barbecue sauce Ed for a while,

            I’m with you 92. As much as I feel the impending doom is right around the corner, I feel this year is the year that we take back the series and say FU to FU.

            We will take Florida down this year but I expect them to overhaul their offense during the bye week. Just don’t have their QB situation straightened out and they finish with some tough games, have to do something different or risk not making a bowl. I think we will see a Wildcat look with their new favorite toy (Toney?) If they run the offense they did against TN and LSU we will beat them by 20+ points.

    Think if he hadn’t gotten hurt in Kneeland. Definitely the finest Dawg of my era.

      If he hadn’t gotten hurt, I bet he leaves after last year and perhaps 2015 turns out very differently. Who knows, Richt and Co. might have even kept their jobs and won the East.

        If Chubb does not get hurt in Knoxville in ’15 Georgia definitely wins that game (the Dawgs were leading by 21 points when Chubb got hurt). There was a tremendous emotional letdown when Chubb went down.

          He got hurt on our second offensive play of the game. Did we score some ST/defensive TDs that I missed?

    I like the way we are handling the RB rotation so much better than Auburn. All these guys are fresh and integrated into the offense. At AU, they ride one guy into the ground…then do it to the next guy the next week. All our guys get reps (and film) on different runs and it opens up all kinds of options.
