Who the hell is talking about Yeldon? He averaged 6.3 a carry and went over 1100 yards as a freshman.

Or would he be destined for the practice squad or wait...maybe long snapper. Gurley Chubb Michel Douglas Marshall (67.3% healthy) Fournette?


In fairness to Fournette, none of UGA's backs would look as good behind LSU's run blocking this year. Fournette is routinely hit in thebackfield because of missed blocks.

He started to look pretty good last night after Harris made the D respect the pass.

BTW, despite all his early season struggles, he is still averaging 6 yards a carry.

Pretty sure Gurley would still look pretty good but I get what you're saying. What's going on with LSU's line? I thought they were going to have one of the better ones in the SEC this year.

The just aren't as good as people thought they would be. Personally, I think they haven't fully taken to the new oline coach.

And, yes, Gurley would be a beast no matter what.

And LF is on pace for pretty much the same. That's my whole point. He is a very good back as a freshman

Yes. And UGA doesnt sign a couple of those guys because they get LF. Gurley is amazing when healthy. I will be shocked if he doesnt get injured before the leghumpers get to play AU.

Chubb however is the real deal as well.

UGA would not be smart enough to play the 11th place rusher in the SEC. LF has more yds and ypc than everyone on your list except the Gurleyman... LF has made all that ground up in the last three games as he only had 18 yds in first game. Aside from his rushing stats he has about 100 yds in receiving too.

Additionally, LF is tied for 6th in TDs in SEC...

opponents playing 8 men in the box with Jennings in the game. Holes started opening as soon as Harris stepped on the field - literally. Defense had to respect the pass and hold up the safeties.

There are probably a few schools where he doesn't make it on the field.


Bama aint one of them... LF has more yds and ypc than Henry and more ypc than Yeldon...

He'd see the field at Bama on special teams and mop up duty. He would be at least 4th or 5th on the depth chart at RB.

I don't understand why everyone is trying to talk crap about LF:

He had a rough outing against Wisconsin in his very first game ever in CFB.


Including that outing, he's getting 5.8yds/carry and just under 15 yds/touch when you add in the receptions. Also, LSU's Oline is rough this year. I think LF is doing fine. As far as, where he would be in the depth chart at UGA, he would probably have been #2 behind Gurley. Chubb is a big bruiser, but he's been held under 3 yds/car two games in a row now. Michel is a good change of pace back, but not a great sub for Gurley if you want the same type of runner. I am not sure who Douglas is. I would assume he's some scrub that got some trash playing time in a blowout.


Your fail troll attempt aside,

Gurley
Marshall (if 100%)
Fournette
Chubb
Michel
Marshall (if not 100%)

Good thing your opinon means nothing and to get hard over this small sample size is a mistake. Love Gurley and would never wish harm to him but if he did not play and wear down defenses would chubb and Michel be as effective? Gurley is the best back in the country and wears out the d. LSU has nothing like that yet!
