Stats are pretty damn close all around which is why LF7 has no chance being on a 2 loss team vs a playoff team like the other two.
Melting L5U fans can downvote all they want but it doesn't change the fact that I speak truth.

Wow, that's razor thin right there.

True and he also lost the benefit of one of our cupcake games.
ETA: He'll still come in second IMO

Even comparing P5 numbers is hardly relevant in Elliot's case. I would take his numbers with a grain of salt until they play their next 2-3 games, which will be the only ranked teams on the schedule.

Elliot could get at least an invite to NY if he plays well the next 3 weeks.

Henry will also be within striking distance of several SEC rushing records - including Herschel's single season record. He needs about 450 yards and 5 TDs to break both records.

(a) these are only stats vs Power 5 teams
(b) cupcake games can be a double edged sword. If we run Charleston Southern out of the building D-Henry will probably get all of about 9 carries (even if we don't run them out). So it counts as a game but doesn't really give him a full game of stats.

Did you watch college football at the end of last season?
His numbers against Wisconsin Alabama and Oregon last year make his stats this year look busch league. Dude is a freak.
Edit: 220 2 TDs in B1G Championship vs Wisconsin. 230 2 TDs in Semi vs Alabama and 246 4 TDs in Natty vs Oregon.
If he pulls that shite vs MSU Michigan and Iowa he wins the fricking Heisman.

I know but looking at the stats at large like the voters would, that does hurt Fournette

Fournette was getting 200+ while sitting out entire quarters at the beginning of the season.
Definitely not seeking argument here, I'm glad it will probably go to someone other than a QB

It is pretty crazy how much better Fournette, Henry and Elliot's numbers are than anyone elses.

Dalvin Cook's are right there with them. His team is shite.

Yea, he has had a good year and has a huge AYPC, but his total yards are nearly as good (both because of injury and because for whatever reason he only seems to get 20 carries a game).

Yeah no shite. I'm not saying he isn't good, or that he wasn't great last year. I'm saying his schedule has been insanely easy so far this year. If he continues this pace against the meat of their schedule, he would be the frontrunner.
ETA: looks like there's a buckeye lurking. A nice tidy downvote on every single post here.
