So in other words, you will not be developing your shitty intermediate passing game while Leonard pads his stats against scrubs.

I think we know how this turns out in November.

U guys don't get. Miles is trolling everyone including his own fan base. He's going to come out throwing all over the place then we he is comfortably ahead, he'll unleash the Kraken that is LF a finish the punishment of his foes.

People hate on Harris who was a first year starter and a tru sophmore even though his stats were right in line with many solid sec qbs during there soph years. He was 2nd in qb rating on 3rd down behind only BAllen. He played hurt from bama Untill he had surgery. He's healthy and up to 225lbs. He gonna prove a lot of haters wrong this year.

fricking hope to god Leonard Fournette doesn't have 395 carries like Henry when we have Derrius Guice. I would much rather him be fresh late in games and late in the season.


Henry had 395 in 15 games
Fournette had 300 in 12

according to CFBstats.

He only had 23 attempts per game. That was enough to put him at 87 in the country... I guess that means he probably only had maybe 5 attempts all year on 3rd down...

Last year, Henry had 266 yards more than Fournette (2219 vs 1953) but played in three more games than Fournette. If the McNeese game hadn't been cancelled, LF may very well have beaten Henry last year. In two less games. Even with his 31 yards verses Bama.

Fournette is certainly going to challenge Henry's record. Maybe Herschel's too if LSU makes the playoffs.

23 throws a game tells me LSU had about 23 third downs a game.

This just in, Fournette and Henry were a wash in yards per carry against common opponents. There were 6 common opponents, so half the schedule.

What did their carries look like against non-Power 5 conference teams?

What about the other half of the schedule? You know, the cupcake part where Henry had 10-12 carries/game and Fournette was rocking 20+?

I know y'all love to beat your chest about how good LF7's numbers were last year, but let's be realistic here. He was scrubbing shitty defenses late in the game while Henry was on the bench by the mid second.

What else you got besides Fournette?

LSU has no other choice.

I agree with this. Many people don't remember that LF sat out many fourth quarters when the lead was in hand against non-conference opponents.

Guice is going to get his carries in the first, second, third, and near most of the fourth quarters in those games.
