On Tuesday, we tried to determine how many 3,000-yard passers the SEC would have in 2017. Today, we're trying to predict how many players will hit the 1,000-yard rushing mark.
Last year, the SEC had 11 players cross 1,000 rushing yards. No other Power 5 conference even reached double digits.
Nine of those 11 players are back, and all of them have a great shot of reaching 1,000 yards again. So how many SEC players will get to 1,000 yards this year? I'll go with 10.
Because there are so many returning 1,000-yard rushers, we can all agree that they should be on this list.
