    Preach. Also something you've not mentioned, is the level of competition that RGIII faced during his heisman campaign against all those big12 juggernaut defenses. I don't see him being as successful playing in the SEC.

    TCU
    Stephen F. Austin
    Rice
    Kansas State
    Iowa State
    aTm
    Okie Lite
    Mizzou
    Kansas
    OU
    Texas Tech
    Texas
    Washington

    Not exactly what I'd call a bunch of stellar defenses. Just sayin'. Mathieu was hands down better.

    The Heisman should have gone to either Richardson or Mathieu IMO. With TR having an edge because he didn't get suspended for a game.

    Alfred Blue in my opinion will emerge as our top notch RB. The guy is physically gifted and reminds me alot of Joe Addai did at LSU. I see him coming into this season strong along with Michael Ford. All I see Kenny Hilliard being is a 3rd down back or being used in Goaline situations. Spencer Ware will more than likly be used in the slot or in an offset power I....

    If not an LSU player, this is what I would have to agree with. Lattimore was a beast before getting hurt. Hopefully he comes back with the same abilities, and is not hindered by the injury.

    I see Kenny Hilliard ending up as our best back. I actually thought Blue might get a look at WR.

    It's a great "problem" to have--debating which of our RB's is the best. And that's not even putting Jeremy Hill or Terrance Magee into the mix.

    Although I agree with you, Hilliard has yet to show that breakaway speed or that monster attitude to put his head down and truck a linebacker or defensive back.
