Thats exactly what I was thinking, I dont think Sanders was the best rb ever but since you said arguably i definitely agree with that. I think its a 4 man conversation and hes one of the 4.(sanders, Payton, Brown, Smith) He also had arguably the best individual season in college history with 2500+ yards rushing. Reggie Bush is a poor mans Brian Westbrook, not Barry Sanders. The difference between the two is that when, and if barry needed to run in between the tackles, he could. Bush cant. Plus as good as Bush is in space, hes still not as good as Barry was.
