Guice has that great jump step and runs harder than any LSU back in a while. Fournette is bigger and faster. His game against Ole Miss was truly an amazing thing to see. It was great to see them both in the same year.

Guice is stronger, and damn near as fast


You have no clue what youre talking about.
Lf is bigger, faster and runs with more power.

Not a knock on Fournette but Guice runs like he wants it mor




So setting the lsu single season rushing and rushing td record isnt showing you he wants it more?

LF'S 2015 season is the 2nd best rushing season in sec history(162.8 yards per game, only bested by Walker in 81) and the was the 1st sec rb to lead the ncaa in rushing since 1949.

Two different styles but a healthy LF is better IMO.

Fournette has nowhere near the the lateral quickness and agility that Guice has and Darius is just as fast if not faster, while still possessing great power in between the tackles. He also has much better vision and has a lower center of gravity so is harder to trip up.


I feel like this is a really simplistic way of looking at these two backs.

Look, to a certain degree, every RB is going to depend on his offensive line to reach his full potential - Fournette just happens to be at his best(which is unstoppable) when he is at the second level.

Guice can make chicken salad out of chicken shite, but I would entirely disagree that he has the top end speed or brute force of Fournette.

That said, it's gonna be fun seeing him in 3 and 4-wide sets next fall.

You have no ideas what you are talking about Actually

Guice had the second highest power clean on the team

Go look at his track times with LF7.They are neck and neck

People just regurgitate that Leonard is stronger and faster

dude you are wrong Guice is an actual award winning power lifter. He was close to some Lsu weight room records this year


I mean, Guice is a Catholic High alum. He's a Gayle Hatch disciple, through and through. It should be no shock that he's insanely strong for his size.

LF is the better physical talent, but Guice just has better vision and a different mentality running the ball.


I'd also disagree that Fournette's vision is weak.

LF is harder to take down on contact and is a more patient runner. I think their overall talent is relatively close, but give me Fournette.


Agree on point 1, disagree on point 2.

He is faster and he runs with more power.
LF is considered as a generational talent while Guice is on the level of a jeremy hill in his nfl draft projections.

Poster that say LF'S vision isnt good are just regurgitating bullshite rant myths.

Every single scouting report of LF says his vision is one of his strengths.

Dude Guice will be the first running back in the draft next year. He will be a top 20 pick

Hill was 55

This has nothing to do with running with more power.

LF runs behind his pads far better than Guice. During Guice's runs he is running to upright to delivery the blow like LF does.

When Hill was drafted he had just had the 2nd best rushing season in lsu history and had set the sec single season ypc record.



But youre right he wil be closer to LF than Hill. I admit i short changed him.

They have him #2. I think he will be the first

You still sticking with your statement he is a second half of the second round pick?
