Barry is one of the best ever without a doubt. And Thurman Thomas was no slouch himself. I'm sure having those two guys running the ball made up for a lot of the mistakes of the offensive line but it's hard to say that the line was too mediocre when Thomas finished fourth in the nation in rushing in 1985 and third in 1987 and then Sanders led the nation in 1988.
