Default Freshman RB of the SEC
NCAA Football Freshman Watch - CBSSports.com

Please forgive me for losing these rose colored glasses. But Moreno's performance against Alabama made him look like an heisman trophy candidate.

Through no fault of his own, Terry Grant's number wasn't even called enough to matter. If I were to vote, and I'm not, but Moreno made the difference last Saturday night.

ESPN - College GameDay Kickoff: Week 5 preview - College Football

3. Knowshon Moreno, Georgia
Moreno is a perfect fit in Mark Richt's offensive scheme at Georgia, which is predicated on the I-formation downhill rushing attack. The redshirt freshman is adequately built at 5-foot-11, 207 pounds, but he is capable of lowering his shoulder and delivering a blow like a 240-pound fullback. Moreno isn't a speedster, but he is a smooth athlete who will gain lots of yards after contact by keeping his balance and falling forward. Moreno is averaging 5.34 yards per carry but only 16 carries per game while he continues to split time with senior Thomas Brown.

Either Moreno is Georgia's next All American RB or Alabama's defense is clueless.

Uhhhh.... let's just forget this ever happened.

Grant is far better. Again, I don't think Moreno looked extremely dominant even against us and heisman candidate is a long stretch. His stats weren't exactly awesome, infact Grant's were better.

They compare Grant to Warrick Dunn, so they think pretty highly of him too.

Lol. Grant isnt even close to Moreno. Lets wait til Moreno gets a majority of the carries, and see what he does.

I like 'em both. I like Grant's speed, moves and ability to follow blockers. I like Moreno's intensity and bruising style of running. Both are exceptional backs.

I think Grant is a good back, but I believe there is a reason Moreno was the 4th ranked back and Grant was around 65.

I tend to form my opinions more on what I see on the field. Like I said, both great backs, but I wouldnt trade.

Yea, Grant, so far is looking like a steal for Bama.
