How freaking douchey. They put USuCk and OU ahead of us because of their one premier back each. ONE, whereas we have a 4-headed MONSTER.
I think LSU's RBs should be ranked #1. But that puts a lot of pressure on the guys to produce as Ronnie Brown and Cadillac Williams can attest to.
Get ball, run away from dudes in other unis. Block occassionally. Nowhere in that equation is it mentioned to alter the above process because of a knucklehead rating scheme. Junk like these ratings put absolutely no pressure on the player.
I'm OK with this list. Reggie Bush is a threat to take it to the house every time he touches the ball. He's a Marshall Faulk type back and is a one of a kind talent in the college game. At OU you have Peterson who had the best freshman season since Herschel Walker. I have no problem being ranked behind these guys.
Forgive me for being scornful, but I can't help but curl my lip at a team that places an entire dimension of its performance on one player. It's like a one-man team with 15 handicaps, ya know? If either of those guys gets injured, say goodbye to their running games. Just my 2.5 cents.
These types of players must sell their souls to the devil, because they NEVER get hurt--unless they're at LSU :grin:.
