sportsjunkie2988 answered your question:Which would you rather have as your running back? 

Lattimore. While it’s impressive what Dyer accomplished, considering he was plan “B” on his team, Lattimore WAS the Gamecocks’ running game.

Which would you rather have as your running back?

Michael Dyer (Fr, RB, Auburn, 1093 yrds, 5 TDs)

or

Marcus Lattimore (Fr, RB, South Carolina, 1197 yards, 17 TDs)

You can only choose one!
