As much of a Homer as i am........it's really, really, really hard not to say Travis Etienne isn't the best RB in the ACC
I love Deejay and particulary like HOW he's running this year. That being said, Travis Etienne has proven himself for a lot longer.
Yes, the dude from Clemson has been the better back longer. But this is about THIS SEASON! And so far DJ is better than Etienne, Akers or Dillion. Also, your boy Etienne DIDN'T do crap against either mighty A&M or an overrated Cuse' squad. The vast majority of Etienne's rushing yards ( 209 ) came against LOWLY GA Tech. A Wrecked Rambler team which probably will win ONE game this season. Yikes
Oh. And one more notion. DJ goes for " 94 yards " on only 11 carries against that NASTY FRONT SEVEN of mighty Florida. GET OUTTA' HERE!
Yeah, yeah, yeah. 99% of Cane fandom HATE mighty Florida. So what. Florida's FRONT SEVEN is still nasty and what not!!!!!!!!!!
Isn't Etienne averaging like 10 yards per carry?

Ok, I'll make a deal with you: If our boy Deejay runs for 210+ yards against GA Tech, I'll concede that Deejay is indeed the better back in 2019. Please know that I will be rooting FOR YOU (and Deejay).Yes, the dude from Clemson has been the better back longer. But this is about THIS SEASON!

jumping to many conclusions and the homers are out today wow
This right here. I think this should be our thinking on this subject.That's 4 special backs including Dallas. Ranking them is irrelevant.
I am pretty sure DJ is a much better blocker than Etienne who is probably a better overall runner. I remember Etienne getting benched against Clemson as a Freshmen vs Bama because he couldn't block.As much of a Homer as i am........it's really, really, really hard not to say Travis Etienne isn't the best RB in the ACC
