I guess you failed to read a couple posts above comparing common opponents.

You don't have a reasonable point, hence the emoticons. No one, in the history of college football, compares players on 18 games over a season and a half, and you're only doing that because it fits your agenda.
Only folks interested in a fair and relevant comparison would compare as I have. Its the kind of stat that would be seen on ESPN and CBS during a telecast. Anyone who fails to see the fairness and relevance of a healthy comparison is being unreasonable, in this case evidenced by laughing emoticons. Not only are the numbers of games the same, the number of carries are almost exactly the same as well. Its about as close to apples to apples as we are ever gonna get. Ever heard of that saying?

I'm hoping he meant for each game, but even then I still don't see where that could lead.
Edit: I guess maybe to deflect to the sharing of the ball, and the whole Les Miles variable.

Whatever you say baw. Obviously, the way everyone else does things is just plain wrong. Your way is the only way.

I suppose you could also break it down with number of touches that other RBs on the team got against common opponents, but then that'd really be splitting hairs.

That won't change the YPC stat, but keep reaching.

Where am I reaching? Which one will be drafted higher in the NFL if things keep on pace with the way they are now? Isn't that the measure of a college players worth?

Wrong. Not everyone CAN play at Alabama. Or they're scared of competition.
But everyone wants to play at Bama. Don't kid yourself.

So said player goes to another team that plays against Alabama, but said player is scared of competition? Also, said player wouldn't have been a take at Alabama?
Right.

First you stated LF had a tougher row to hoe due to playing in the West. That was debunked with the common opponents stats. Then you try to throw in "shared carries" as a reason LF's stats weren't as good. That's reaching.

No one really knows this.

All depends on Chubb's recovery. Hope he comes back strong, but we'll have to wait and see.

Not really, been some low round draft picks that turned out to be great, and there's been some high round draft picks that were duds...Jamarcus Russell ring a bell.

I'm one of maybe 10 LSU fans I've seen on this site say Chubb was better than Fournette in 2014. Meanwhile, I've seen maybe 3 UGA fans say Fournette was better than Chubb in limited action in 2015.
At this point, I'm also probably one of only 5 LSU/UGA posters here who will admit that if I had to give up my RB, and take the other, I'd be perfectly fine with it because they are 1a. and 1a-a, when Chubb is healthy.

Since it's the kind of stat that would be seen on ESPN and CBS during a telecast, I am obviously not the only person interested in a fair and relevant comparison as you imply. What a ridiculous assertion that was on your part.

I would take Chubb. Better conference player
