I know some will come in and troll, but I am curious what LSU fans think is a reasonable set of stats to expect. Can he top last season?

He won't gain as many yards as last year for two reasons.
1. Because they're expecting that other guy to share more of the load this year.
2. He is going to be looking forward to the NFL and will not give it his all. I know LSU fans like to think differently, but they aren't living in the reality that states "a healthy first round draft pick is worth millions of more dollars than an unhealthy 3rd round pick."

Also. LSU sucks.

250 rushes for 1700-1900 yards.

I think he wants to win the Heisman trophy. Hell, he may come out with a chip on his shoulder and put up record numbers. If Harris can complete early passes and back the safeties up then he will rush for 2000+.

TD's? And, if that is what he gets are you assuming Guice will get more yards and opportunities than last season?

Thanks for the serious answer!

I kind of lean in this direction, too. Harris will be a big key for him. It could be a monster year for him. It will be exciting to watch the year unfold with a LOT of stories unfolding.

1900-2200 He's even more hungry this year for the Heisman even if he won't admit it.

20 or so.

Yes. Guice gets 125-150 IMO. My bold prediction for the season has been Guice getting 1000 from scrimmage for a while now.

Thanks for the recap. It's a perfect explanation of my point.
Look at the big game. Alabama. It looks like he didn't even suit out, mustering a whopping 10 yards. He followed it up with a better, but still lackluster performance against our Razorbacks.

Hell, one of the worst teams in the SEC last year held him below 100 as well. The Missouri Tigers.

Really the biggest thing his stat line tells me from last year is that they ran him down the throat of teams that were straight terrible like Jackson State, that he was average in the SEC, and that Auburn can't stop the run.


ETA: And it makes no sense that LSU fans would expect him to even equal his totals from last season when they expect that other over rated guy to get more carries this year. Unless they're trying to argue that LSU is going to field some sort of explosive offense this year. We know that ain't happenin' because they still have the same HC and O Coordinator.

He was 2nd in yards, 2nd in TDs, and 5th in YPC in conference last year. Also, all 4 ahead of him in YPC had 100+ fewer carries.


So, let's recap your post.

1. You've either traveled back in time or you don't have a fricking clue who played who last year. This is up for debate.
2. You just make shite up.

fricking solid bro. fricking solid.
