Who do you guys believe is the single greatest running back in the SEC over the past 30 years?

Its blasphemy for me to say it but without a doubt its Hershal Walker in my opinion. Hell he is probably the greatest running back in college football over the past 30 years. Had he played his senior year and mearly hit his average numbers from the first 3 years combined Ron Dayne wouldn't be sitting on top of the all-time rushing yards category for Div-1 ball right now it would be Hershal.

Without a doubt its Walker.. nobody even comes close.. not even Dayne

UK has never had a "great" running backs.. we've had some "good" ones. Moe Williams(93-95) is probably at the top of the charts since we can only go back 30 years. Over 3300 yards rushing in just 3 years for a Kentucky RB and he had a nice NFL stint with the Vikings. All around .. you may have to give the nod to Anthony White(96-99) with over 1700 yards rushing and 1500 yards receiving. All time leading rusher for UK is Sonny Collins(72-75) with over 3800 yards

What about Little he was pretty good for the Cats.

The real question is who is #2? Bo knows.

I would say that Bo is #2. Being an Auburn fan it is easy for me to say that though.
