The love was laid on a little thick for my liking today. Many major outlets saying he's the best skill player in the country and will take a stranglehold on the trophy with a good showing vs MSU.

I'd prefer he and DONU stay under the radar a little while longer.

Double edged sword.

Yea if Nebraska goes on the road and beats a top 10 team........something that they haven't done in 17 years.......we won't be able to stay under the radar.

Do you know Ameer is aiming to be an Academic All American also? How many times do you hear something like that from a possible Heisman candidate? I don't think I ever heard Jameis Winston or Johnny Manziel utter those words.

Robert Griffin III could have done it.

Gurley was deemed a star since his freshman year, and he hasn't disappointed. UGA has faced South Carolina, Clemson, and Tennessee...

Gurley rushed for 198 yards against Clemson, 131 vs SCAR, and 208 yards vs Tennessee. That's lighting up some legit competition in my opinion.

Ameer Abdullah's toughest 3 matchups are Miami, Illinois, and Fresno St. He put up 229, 208, and 110 yards on those 3. Pretty similar stats, just Gurley played tougher competition in my opinion.

If Abdullah can rush for over a hundred on Michigan st., then he might start getting some of the love that Gurley is getting.

He would be looking at little better at this point if McNeese St. hadn't held him to 3 ypc.

did tennessee get Manning back as quarterback? What makes you think they are "legit"? The 7 conference wins in 4 years, the streak of losing seasons? Or are they legit because they are in the SEC and makes them "skrong"?

I bet Narduzzi gives him plenty of attention Saturday.

13 carries 21 yards 1 fumble inside 10

Lots of game left for him to right himself though.

yeah it's one thing to run over scrubs......not so much against legit defenses.

Melvin Gordon doesn't get the attention he deserves.......or the coaching, or the playcalling

Are you aware of Ameers stat line vs Sparty the last few years? Or are you calling Spartys D from last year scrubbish?

Seems if he was worthy of attention he would get it. Big names dont disappear when they play teams of note, they rise to the occasion.

Michigan State has a wonderful defense; especially against the run. They simply took the ball out of the Ameer's hands...not his fault. Credit Michigan State for taking the best player out of the game.
