ESPN ranks college football’s RBUs, leaves Georgia off list

ESPN releases list of college football’s top 10 running back universities over the history of college football, leaves out Georgia football.

Georgia has a tendency to recruit heavily at the running back position, bringing through backs that somehow always seem better than the last one.

From Herschel Walker to Knowshon Moreno, Todd Gurley to Nick Chubb, Sony Michel and D’Andre Swift, the Dawgs have always had the engine of their offense be the running back.

ESPN released their list of which schools they think have produced the most consistently dominant running backs over the years.

The Dawgs couldn’t be more deserving of a spot on this list, but somehow got left off.

ESPN’s RBU top 10:

  1. Alabama
  2. Wisconsin
  3. LSU
  4. Oklahoma
  5. Miami
  6. Pittsburgh
  7. Texas
  8. Oregon
  9. Arkansas
  10. Auburn

Looking at each team’s top three RBs and not seeing Georgia there is pretty crazy.

The comment sections started filling up on the Instagram post, asking how on earth ESPN could leave UGA off a RBU list.  If you check the post, that is the main comment going around on the numerous flaws of the list.

There will always be Georgia doubters out there.

Georgia will be losing RB D’Andre Swift to the NFL Draft as well as Brian Herrien.  The Dawgs will be in good hands with Zamir White, James Cook and incoming freshman RB Kendall Milton taking on the work load next season.
