I think this is silly. Hurd is faster, has better hands and you just watched him behind the worst offensive line in the SEC. Literally, the worst line in the conference and half of those games were spent in the dumbest offensive plan on earth, because we literally had no options for running the football. Chubb would have blown goats in our offense.
The talent separating the top five returning RB's is marginal. All will be playing Sunday For sh*ts and giggles who's your five, papa
He averages 1,100 yards the next 2 years, and he can go pro early, and still set the UT career rushing record. He had 899 behind this year's crap OL, so it's well within the realm of possibility, if he stays healthy.
This is how I feel. Georgia is like the Denver Broncos during the Shanahan years when it seemed that whoever they put back there would have an all-pro season. People that think Chubb is better than Hurd are the same people that would argue Emmitt Smith is better than Barry Sanders. Apples and oranges.
At some point you have to use the eyeball test. Of course Hurd's numbers are worse due to the difference in O-line talent, but just watching you can tell that Chubb breaks more tackles and runs past more people than Hurd.
Outruns, makes them miss, and knocks them over. All better than Hurd. Even when Chubb gets tackled he falls forward. Heck, Hurd goes down sideways and backwards about as often as Jabari Davis did.
