Russell Hansbrough, SR, RB, Missouri
Hansbrough ran for 1084 yards on 205 carries and scored 10 touchdowns in 2014 leading the Tigers on the ground. In 2014, Hansbrough split time with senior Marcus Murphy, but will have the ball on the majority of carries for the Tigers in 2015.
His 1084 yards in 2014, landed him sixth in the SEC despite only starting three games. Look for this veteran back to make defenses pay, especially in the later part of the season. Missouri is known for scoring lots of points – Hansbrough will be the guy scoring most of those points this season for the Tigers.
