4.4 always magically turn into 4.5s at the combine.

LF7 led the nation in Yrds per game last year, giving him the NCAA rushing title
59% of his yardage was gained against the SEC. As opposed to Henry's 73%. That's why he's not a once in a generation RB.

Guys. Can I see an example of an LSU fan calling LF7 the best of all time? Being a superior player to everyone else and a generational talent does not equal number 1 of all time.

LF7's stats are similar to Garretts. Great numbers, but a majority of them come from OCC or weaker teams.

Bama fans alway talk crap about LF's 32 rushing yards, but at the same time forget that everyone in the entire stadium knew LSU was going to run the ball on first and second down. They also seem to forget that they had one of the best front 7s in the past 15 years.

Refer to my post above. Herschel's freshman OOC schedule didn't have Eastern Michigan (the worst run defense in football) or Western Kentucky.



And his sophomore OOC included Temple
And his junior OOC included Memphis State

Fournette didnt play last season against our FCS opponent, so the only horrible OOC opponent he had was Eastern Michigan. Western Kentucky won 12 games, and their rushing defense wasn't horrible. Even if you want to include them, the schedule from his sophomore season isnt much different than the schedule from Herschel's sophomore OR junior seasons. Back then you also only played 6 SEC games, and there's no question the SEC is better now than it was back then which you left out.

McFadden won the Doak Walker twice. He was the two time Heisman runner-up and got Arky to Atlanta. His impact was far greater than anything LF7 could hope to accomplish in the SEC at this point.



And McFadden never had a season as good as Forunette's last year.

Carry on.

Bro you have to ignore the stats. Fournette sucks just because.

Even though it has nothing to do with the stat I posted, you're still wrong.

So, LF averaged 26 attempt per game vs OOC scrubs. Henry only averaged 13. So while Henry was on the bench vs scrubs LF was in the game padding stats.

Henry was a better college back. Probably will be in the NFL too.

I know you're just trolling man. You can swear up and down you aren't but when it comes to talking shite about any LSU player and gobbling the balls of any Bama player you're the GOAT.

He is better and the stats prove that time and again. Once ole LF makes it to the NFL we will see. But Henry has done a great job so far. Not sure why he gets so much flak.

Derrick Henry is not better than Leonard Fournette. Sorry. Anyone with eyes knows this.

Ok so we are going to completely ignore the facts, stats, and achievements and rely on the eye test only? Wow you people are amazing. Everyone said he would suck at every level. He isn't.
