Florida loses to either UGA or Arkansas especially considering the Ark game is in Hogtown the week after the Fl-Ga game
I was going to type a lot and the reality is deep down we are suffering from the same fear for our teams.

Hmmm i just saw Henry go 2nd round, and he is better than Hurd

Lol. Henry is terrible. Dude is top heavy. He has skinny legs. His initial burst was putrid. Same with his agility. Dude needs canyons of space to get any yards. He was a product of a system.

Hurd on the other hand has a well proportioned body. Solid lower body. He has crazy acceleration and agility for a 240 lbs guy. He's explosive through the hole and shows some wiggle. Great pass catcher and blocker. Really the total RB.

There really is no comparison between the two other than height and weight. They have different body designs and skillsets.

He probably could...but hell I didn't even know he'd be y'all starter...y'all were rotating a few...hell I though Roc was y'all starting RB
Roc is probably just as good a RB, its just dude has already been proven to be injury prone and probably spins a little much than necessary. But dude definitely has the ability to be an elite RB.

Both Henry and Gurley are better than Hurd

Gurley? Maybe. Henry? Hell naw.

You guys need to watch the game tape rather than just highlights or stats.

Just look at Hurd vs. Florida last year.



This is a much better RB than Henry. Way better. Like there literally is no comparison between the two.

Look at his cuts. Henry has NEVER made cuts like Hurd did against Florida. He also doesn't have Hurd's explosiveness through the hole.

Hurd is actually really fast. I bet he runs 4.45-4.50 at the combine. For 240 lbs that moving.

There are clips of him running on a treadmill at 23.1 mph.

Slow is something Jalen Hurd aint.

Henry has long range speed. His initial burst is weak though. He's like a runaway locomotive. Give him a runway and he's gone. However, that runway needs to be huge cause dude struggles with cutting cause he has no agility.

Just watch how bad he struggles in the pros when the holes aint the size of canyons.

He's Trent Richardson 2.0.

I think you know a lil about Bama RBs struggling in the NFL.
