Is Rebels Quinshon Judkins Country's Best RB?

After a historic freshman season for the Rebels, Quinshon Judkins is primed to put together another strong showing as a sophomore.
In this story:

The Ole Miss Rebels boasted one of college football's most elite offenses last season, averaging 33.5 points per game on a staggering 496.4 yards of total offense. While these numbers might suggest an air raid style offense, that wasn't the case for Ole Miss.

Instead, the Rebels fielded an elite rushing attack that averaged 256.6 yards per game on the ground. 

Leading the way for the Rebels in the run game was freshman Quinshon Judkins, who put the college football world on notice in his first season. As as freshman Judkins rushed for 1,567 yards and 16 touchdowns en route to being named SEC Freshman of the Year and earning First Team All-SEC honors. 

Now, Judkins is ready to lead the Rebels offense once again in his sophomore season - with Bleacher Report labeling him the best sophomore running back in college football. 

It will be hard for Judkins to top his historic freshman season which saw him break Ole Miss' single-season records for rushing yards and touchdowns. 

However, the Rebels don't need Judkins to go out and break his own records as a sophomore but rather put together another dominant season on the ground. If he can do that, the Ole Miss offense will once again be one of the best in college football.
