This century 12 QB's have won it. Only two running backs won, with one having to give it back because he went pro early.

A DL from Penn state has 15.5 sacks this season. A kid from Iowa has 8 interceptions.

This does seem to be a good year for a RB to get this QB trophy though. Fournette and Henry are both beasts.

Conversely, if LSU was a slight threat to pass, they don't ride Fournette like a rented mule in so many games and his stats go down.

He should have a nice game against the Aggies but LSU has took a nose dive in November, which is the month that championships and Heisman trophies are won. If Derrick Henry keeps rolling and Bama wins big in their next 2 games, its his Heisman and he earned it. His team and his performances got better and better as the season progressed.

The award has changed since walker won it. I cant think of the last time a guy won that was on a 4 loss team and i dont think we beat ATM tomorrow. Chavis is a good DC and has 3 games of footage showing exactly how to stop our offense. Hell our signals are probably all the same so he will bave that going for him as well.

Hope im wrong.

Henry probably has a better chance to break Herschel's record because he'll likely have an extra game.

Plus he'll break the single season TD record.

This


henry has less yards with an extra game, that is my point. LF has one less game.

And Henry will likely get another "extra game" prior to the Heisman ceremony, which means he'll finish the season with a higher rushing total, more touchdowns, and the records.

ETA: and better numbers against shared competition.

Les is the coach, the would still. They can do nothing to make you back off the run game, nothing.Jeremy Hill?? I could have sworn the gameplans were still feed Hill when Odb and landry were here.

Decent isn't even asking for Mett just not shitty. Jordan Jefferson is the worst fricking QB I've ever laid eyed on, has nothing to do with this but I just thought that I should mention. With that said AJ mccaron type play and he's winning that trophy.


You saw the same game I saw, them Bama players were in the backfield as soon as he touched the ball more often than not.

Les singly handily lost that young man his trophy. I can't wait to run that clown out of town. Let the boos rain when A&M scores 21 unanswered.


I'm 100% sure of this I'm not gonna debate with you

Fournette has more yards on less rushes than Henry, he will get an invite. Plus, that extra game

Henry has a chance to break the record, too. He's less than 300 yards away with two games to go.

Henrys came against better competition though. Eight of Alabama’s 10 opponents so far this season are bowl eligible – leads SEC and nation with five Top 25 wins.

No he won't.

Fox had a graphic up yesterday of the top 4 currently.

It was Henry, Watson, Stanford dude and some other guy. Fournette will be watching it on tv

The dude is the real deal and if they actually look at the numbers he is still in it.


If it were just about numbers, alot of heisman winners wouldn't have won. It is about "moments", performing in the clutch, actually winning games.....in addition to the numbers.

I just don't see all the love, he ran wild on teams that had no D, against good D's he shite the bed end of story.

what good defenses has Henry run wild on? LSU's defense has been atrocious lately. Mississippi State is not good defensively. Texas A&M has one of the worst rush defenses in the country. Henry has had his big games down the stretch. Fournette hasn't.
