It was a short period of time, the sweet cherry was picked, but you know that slight lead wasn't gonna last much longer.

What do you mean? The number type of carry matters.

Chubb literally had a major injury yet doesn't matter, but being a back up matters as to discredit stats?
When doing a stat discussion about a starters natural ability to run the ball. Chubb's injury doesn't change his ypc. What he did, he did, and he did it as well as we have seen.

Yet you assume he would have finished the season above or below LF7. I mean. Since we are talking about things that didn't happen and all.

You guys are all stupid. You are taking something subjective and pretending to be objective about it.
Some of the best runs I've ever seen went for less than 2 yards and were "stat fails". Stats don't show how big a hole was or when a defensive player over-committed or was out of position.
Enjoy both of these guys while they're here and quit trying to force another fanbase to bow at your feet and say your guy's better.

Above is a safe assumption considering how much LF dropped off.

You keep saying dropped off and yet LF went for 200+ in each of the last three games of the year including a 5 TD performance in the bowl game, but sure keep making up shite in your head that makes you feel better.

Tell me what's imaginary. This is how you go from for sure heisman winner to not even in the conversation:
Games 1-05: 119 carries, 1022 yards, 12 tds, 8.58 ypc
Games 6-11: 152 carries, 719 yards, 6 tds, 4.73 ypc
See the giant drop off?

The idea is to increase possessions per game and therefore potentially plays per game.
LSU had a ton of short drives last year on LF7 long TDs. We also had a ton of 3-and-outs.

Henry was the best back in the SEC last year even though he had less YPC than both LF7 and Chubb.
what made him the best?

I think these preseason rankings are stupid.
That said, LSUs and Georgia's back fields are easily #1a and 1b and I can't find too much fault in someone putting UGAs tandem slightly ahead of LSU.
That said, I would put LSU first just for the simple fact that BOTH of Georgia's guys are coming off injury.

Most people on here would have laughed if any LSU fan said that Beckham was the best WR in the country when he was in college. Good- sure. The best? laughable. Now most would think it would be laughable if Beckham wasn't in the discussion for elite WR in the NFL.
(I actually don't know if I would have said Beckham was the best WR in college when he was in college.)
With that said, being a LSU fan with some ability to spot talent, it was clear Beckham and Landry were special.
Guice is, without a doubt, special. I don't watch enough Georgia games to have as strong of an opinion about how good Chubb or Michel are, but I can't imagine a backfield being better than one in which Guice is 2nd string.
Therefore, I think LSU is easily > UGA this year in the backfield. I'm not knocking Chubb or Michel. Guice is THAT good.

LF would be laid up just like Chubb on that play on UT s horrible turf.
Was a fluke unavoidable play...
Just hope both stay healthy.

So you're just another LSU dick that's glad Chubb got hurt. Got it.

Pretty much. That turf is dangerous to those with elite balance.

Miles' playcalling is holding lf back
-we play in the harder division (nevermind they had 5 common opponents and NC absolutely dominated the stats in all 5 meetings)
-We had brandon harris
-Defenses were keying in more on lf than they were on chubb
-LF has more potential and will be better in the nfl
-etc etc etc
LF was sharing the load his freshmen season. When you are getting less than 10 carries in some games, yeah your stats aren't going to be as good.
I usually just chalk this up to uga fans still being butt hurt about 03 and 07.

Chubb only averaged 2 more cpg. That's not a big deal in a per carry comparison.

Fournette's performances against Ole Miss and A&M were impressive for sure. Texas Tech... well, I think I could have run for 200+ against them last year

I'm taking a healthy Chubb over Fournette everyday of the week.
If Chubb stays healthy all year, and Fournette has some nagging injuries, the NFL will still take Fournette before Chubb. This is not a clise call.
Chubb is very good and will have a great NFL career. Fournette is substantially better.
