Very nice

We might have had a few good tailbacks in the last few years.

Now if Trent would just get his butt in gear.... I never would have thought he'd be the least successful of the three in the NFL at this point.

That's AWESOME!!! Ingram is still my favorite Bama player of All-Time!!! I honestly think if he were on a run committed team that let him be THE #1 guy he would WRECK the NFL defenses. I can't think of any other player who has been more underutilized. Seeing him have a stat line like that makes me extremely happy for him. He is a GREAT person and a BEAST of a RB. Way to go INGY!!!!

Great stat line for Lacy too....I also love me some 'Steady Eddie' spinning around the field. Awesome stuff for both of them.

Trent was a having a good week last week until he pulled a hamstring.

As long as he stays injury free I think Trent will have a long successful career. Give it some time. Trent is going to be fine.

Now the Saints and the rest of the NFL see what I've been preaching since Mark came into the league, give him the touches and he will produce. If the Saints don't want to use him, I'm sure another team will.

I'm with you. I hate the Saints as much as I hate UT and AU for how bad they have misused Mark. He's constantly had to rotate with 2-3 other RB's. He's the type of RB that needs constant touches to get in a groove and then BAM!!!....you CAN'T stop him. He hits the hole, jump cuts (Ingram trademark move), bounces, stumbles, stiff arms, charges, shrugs off, and drags MULTIPLE defenders down the field. It's Yac Yac Yac Yac Yac.....he's the best we've had imho.

Lacy was in beast mode for a few of those runs. That was fun watching him and Ingram ball out tonight.

You haven't received the word our rival schools have spread in recruiting against us - we turn out nothing but busts in the NFL...

Mark has 1 fumble his entire nfl career, that was his rookie season. That is remarkable.

Didn't he only have something like one or two his entire career at Bama?

The man knows how to hold onto the football, that's for sure!

Go Bama · Oct 27, 2014

For those that didn't watch the game, Mark was the main tailback used and he was not rotating in and out. He was in the game on all downs not just running downs. What many have argued here for a long time is if the Saints would just put him in the game and let him play (like last night) he'd be a great back. They were proven right last night.

He had two. One was against UT in the 2 blocked FG's game. The other was against the Barn in the Cam game when he got stripped from behind.

Maybe Larry Csonka held the ball better but I doubt it. Ingram is really amazing.

uafanataum · Oct 27, 2014

Lacy caught 3 short passes on the same drive with two for first downs. I was wandering if they were not taking him seriously or if it was a product of his own skill.

Totally agree, Trent needs an offense that knows how to run block and I think that will be Seattle next year.

He fumbled against Seattle in the playoffs last year...maybe that stay was regular season.

Ingram, like Yeldon, is an incredibly untimely fumbler. However, he's not nearly as prolific an untimely fumbler as TJ is.

Mark Ingram having a great night! (Lacy too)
