From 2008 RB POE Ratings - Dwyer #4 - Moreno #8

I imagine Moreno hurt himself by taking himself out of some games. Of course #8 is not to shabby and don't get me wrong Moreno was a great college RB.

For 2009 we will have Jahvid, Dwyer, and Hunter back for sure to enjoy. I'm sure the Pro scouts notice that Dwyer is a big producer in the 2nd half of football games kind of like Michael Turner (of the Falcons) is known for doing during his NFL career.

FOOTBALL OUTSIDERS: Football analysis and NFL stats for the Moneyball era - Authors of Football Outsiders Almanac 2009: "Some (Florida's Jeffrey Demps, North Carolina's Greg Little) proved they could post high PPP+ numbers, while Michigan State's Javon Ringer (30 carries per game) proved he could be a workhorse, but the names at the top of the POE list did both.
Let's take a list at who the POE measure tells us were the best backs in college football last year.

Top 25 College Rushers according to POE, 2008

1. Jahvid Best California So.
2. Shonn Greene Iowa Jr.
3. LaGarrette Blount Oregon Jr.
4. Jonathan Dwyer Georgia Tech So.
5. Kendall Hunter Oklahoma State So.
6. Jeremiah Johnson Oregon Sr.
7. Chris Brown Oklahoma Jr.
8. Knowshon Moreno Georgia So."
