Eric Dickerson
Earl Campbell

I did like watching Eric Metcalf when he was at Texas-great runner!

Great guys I saw were Freeman McNeil, Marcus Allen, Eric Dickerson, and Reggie Dupard.

Go Ponies!

Tough call on all of those.

ED, Earl Campbell, Rosy Leaks, Wayne Morris in College.
John Riggins, ED, Barry Sanders, Tony Dorsett (although Alfred Morris if he keeps it up...) NFL
Herschel Walker (USFL). - Saw him run a sweep 98 yards.

Best RB I've seen in college was Ricky Williams at Texas. I saw him run all over Mississippi State in the Cotton Bowl the year he was the Heisman. Best RB I saw in the pros was Emmitt Smith

Dickerson
I saw Earl Campbell both as a collegiate and a pro.
Ricky Williams.

in college , live, Reggie Bush and Steven Jackson.
Bush was on another level.

In no particular order:

Eric Dickerson
Jim Brown
Earl Campbell
Walter Payton
Adrian Peterson
Gayle Sayers
John Riggins
Curtis Martin
Zach Line!

Also in no particular order (but I had to watch them play live)

College: George Rogers (S. Car), Emmitt Smith (UF), Herschell Walker (UGA), Bo Jackson (Auburn) or Barry Sanders (OSU). I never saw James or ED play live when they were at SMU so I left them off the list.

Pro: ED, Walter Payton, Marshall Faulk, LT, AP, Emmitt Smith, Earl Campbell

Honorable mentions - College: Ron Dayne (UW), Percy Harvin (UF) (Yes - they lined him up in the backfield about 35% of the time), Kijana Carter (Ped State)... Anyone Nick Saban has played since he took over at Alabama.

Honorable Mentions - Pro: Wendel Tyler (SF), Tony Dorsett (Dal), Thurman Thomas (Buf)

Charles Waggoner needs to be added to the college list.

True, Rebel. True.

If you had a High School list I would have to say Rex Burkhead from Plano-wow! Preston Miller for the Scotties was fun to watch too.

What was that kid's name out of Rockwall Heath a few years back? Kendial Lawrence. That dude was good

Eric Dickerson shared the stage with Craig James which took away some of his glory. (James was a great asset also - not trying to take anything away from him). Thus, I would say Jim Brown was the best college running back (watch his game against TCU in the Cotton Bowl).

However, Eric Dickerson was the greatest running back to play football. Jim Brown was the second best and Earl Campbell third.

I'm sure I'm right! LOL

Of course we are forgetting Jim Thorpe. I wonder where he should be ranked?

Best College RB:LT
Best Pro RB: Barry Sanders. It was the MNF game where he ran for over 200 yards on the Dallas Cowboys at Texas Stadium.
