The best defense Fournette and Hurd played against which is Bama, Hurd rushed right under 100 yards and pass blocjed like a monster while Fournette crapped the bed despite running behind a better offensive line.

Herschel Walker went for 1975 yds in 12 games in '81. He had 84yds in the Sugar Bowl but Bowl stats were not added to season totals back then, he had 1891yds in 11 games + 84yds in the Sugar...

Fournette tends to go off against crappy defenses for gaudy numbers. Hurd just steadily gets it done no matter who he plays.

Great! LSU couldn't finish better than third in their division, when their RB had the best season of all time. Am I doing this right?

In 11 games really.

He didn't get any help from the O-line or offensive play-calling in that one game two states over...

He looked great putting up 200+ against Eastern Michigan.

I agree that he is an elite talent...but he has got to bring it in the big games if he wants to be historic.

Hurd is a good back but he can't hold Fournette's jock

Really, 11 games. It's like he didn't play at all against Bama.

Fornette is a tremendous tailback. He has good balance, a great burst and top end speed.

The only reason Bama people appear to "hate" on Fornette is because of the disrespect shown towards D Henry.

Henry is equally great, yet has a somewhat awkward running style.

Chubb is dynamic as well.

But Hershel Walker is Hershel Walker. In 50 years of watching this sport, hes still the most dominate player I've ever seen.
