Hilliard wins with strength and pad level... He is always falling forward, which means an extra 1-2 yards a carry.
Funny line, but let's not encourage it. "Tree Stump" would be a horrible nickname for any running back.
Late in the game Hilliard was driving forward and Georgia players were trying to take the ball away from him. Hilliard was having none of that! Kenny pulled harder and hung on.:hihi:
IMO Ford and Hilliard are the 2 best backs of the 4 LSU plays. JMO Ware hasn't stepped it up and while Blue is fast he gets dropped to easily.
