Pick One - RB

Defenses knew Troy was getting the ball and they still couldn't stop him. Love Breece, but he had TEs, WRs, and a QB who could scramble that defenses also had to respect.
That being said, Breece will probably have a more successful NFL career.

I never saw Breece get run down from behind. He had more homerun capability.
Troy could carry the ball 40 times a game, and seemed like he was barely winded or beat up at all. Absolute bowling ball.
Breece was faster, better in the pass game, but definitely not as indestructible.
As far as who you want... depends on what you want to do. Imagine Troy playing in Frerentz' offense - he would literally get 50 carries per game. But he wouldn't be as productive in say, Gundy's scheme, where Breece would be a better fit.

Breece can block, Troy could not learn any of the schemes.
To be fair, Troy really didn’t need to.
For Today's game I take Breece, but I watched every home game Troy played in. He was the real deal.
If Troy was on the Fiesta Bowl team, he would have won the Heisman. I know it’s just my opinion, but Troy had 2 2k rushing seasons! Breece?
Yep...That's no doubt top 4. Can't think of anyone else even close. They were all pretty special just different teams, eras, and type of RB. Montgomery is the best after contact RB I have ever seen play at Iowa State and one of the better in college. He's had a pretty decent NFL career also so he's my #1.
Amundson but I wasn't alive. He played everything though. Crutchfield and A Rob pretty good too.
Breece was more rounded as a complete back.
Troy was more of a grinder.
If I had to choose, I'm taking Breece.

Was hardly a reason to go to a Clones game other than to see how many yards Troy was going to get. Remembering how short and slow he was, his performance was amazing. Always found holes, or made them, and broke tackles when the defense ran him down.
From an ability/talent/gifted/exciting, and how ever many other superlatives one wants to add, it's hard to top Breece.
Unless one also includes George Amundson, an amazing athlete at RB as well as QB.

Anyone remember Dexter Green? Wanna weigh in?
Breece is more suited to the modern game, but people who weren’t around or paying attention to Troy don’t appreciate what a raw force of nature he was.
I voted for Troy. My love of ISU football started with him.
