Arguably of the top 10 teams on this list we faced two of the better rbs in hershall sims and sean southward.

I agree, and while it is still early . . .

Hershall Sims averaged 6.4 YPC for 83 yards the week after playing UL.
Sean Southward had 210 yards and averaged 7.3 YPC the week before playing UL.

Take for instance rutgers who is ahead of us. They played tulane who is averaging 7.5 yards a game in to games. They had 10 total rushing yards against rutgers and only 5 vs tulsa.

I was going to comment on the level of competition except I realized those are big swings no matter who you play or played.
