If you had to choose. Ki-Jana or Saquon?

To be fair, lets add a snippet of SB's greatest hits. Both guys were very special talents. I think KC had raw power and speed. SB had speed and unbelievable shiftiness.



I probably alter my decision each time I watch either of them

God bless you, my friend. Made my day.

The run against Minnesota where the announcer was yelling “ridiculous!” Was Paul Alexander when he was at WTAJ-10 Altoona. WTAJ broadcast the game themselves because the game was set to be untelevised .Paul Alexander did play by play. He was pissed that the station had not yet come back from commercial during the touchdown run. I remember it like yesterday, they came back from commercial and announced Psu just scored a touchdown

hahaha I can't believe that someone else remembers that!

Not sure that is totally accurate.....Bates, McGovern, Walker, Fries all played NFL...plus Menet, Scruggs, Effner, Gonzales, Holmes, Miranda, Thorpe and others shows Saquon had some talent to run behind also...the problem was the mess point fiasco. Different schemes....Both incredible talents.

Come on the 1994 OL may have been the best during Paterno’s tenure. Crazy to think what Barkley could have done behind that line and I am a big fan of Carter.

Whoo boy talk about a "Sophies Choice"...I would need to see Barkley behind the '94 line and Ki-Jana behind the 2016 line. As much as I loved watching Kijana run I think Barkley wins this.
Barkley probably goes over 2,500 yards with that '94 OL I'm thinking like Barry Sanders type numbers from 1988.

I think someone early hit on a key point, the "mesh point" that used to dominate the running game when Barkley played was a hindrance to Saquon adding on extra yardage on many plays. Still KJC was a better runner between the tackles.

And Saquon was better at everything else.

based solely on college. I take Ki-Jana.

Live and in person Ki-Jana was the best tailback I ever saw. Saw him at home, away and on TV. Electric! Every single time.
