None of this would be happening if LF7 or your Oline could figure out how to run block a simple 5-2.

It looked like they went backwards on every single play like they were pass protecting.


Pretty much this. Thanks for admitting that it had nothing to do with LF7

NFL potential is what LSU fans hang their hat on. It's what they have left. "Yeah five in a row but PP7 is a hell of a corner."

I would. I prefer to be on track to an SEC title and playoff birth.. having the leading player for the Heisman is just icing on the cake.

After 10 weeks of craziness, the good folks in Vegas believe the race for the Heisman Trophy has a new leader.

Unlike the previous running back, Derrick Henry took full advantage of this past weekend’s marquee matchup between Alabama and LSU. It’s safe to say that no member of the Tide rolled quite like Henry, who carried the ball 38 times for 210 rushing yards and three scores. If the 2015 season were to end today, it appears Henry would find himself the recipient of the sport’s biggest individual honor

That has nothing to do with who is the better rb. Hell Ingram won a Heisman with 3 games of less than 60 yards rushing and 5 games of less than 100 yards rushing.

Didn't say that at all. I do think it is pretty pathetic though that you're trying to save his Heisman race by saying your own team is awful and by propping up his stats against cupcakes.


That doesn't seem like something a Heisman candidate should be known for. Losing against the best competition, and beating up on cupcakes.


Either way, believe what you want. If Henry runs for 150+ against MSU, Auburn and Florida, and wins the SEC, he wins the Heisman.

Sucks to suck, but don't put up 31 yards against Alabama and he probably wins it.

oh I thought we were talking about who's gonna win the heisman, my bad.

I mean if this were anybody besides LF31, surely you guys would agree that a legendary pants shitting like we saw on Saturday would do serious damage to his campaign. I mean it's obvious. it was the biggest game of his life and he sucked.

And he would go down as one of the least deserving winner.
A heisman winner with 2 games better than LF'S worst game.

LF has played 1 less game and still has better stats than Henry.

If the season ended today LF would set the sec single season ypc record

not as fragile as our RG and RT

the amount of stat twisting bama fans are doing to play out the Henry > LF7 troll narrative speaks for itself

there isn't a single intelligent Alabama fan that would decline a straight up trade between the two players

Some of us (like me) don't think DH is better. It's just that some L5U fans (especially you) think Henry isn't even comparable to LF and scoff at the notion that he could finish higher/win the Heisman. That and you trying to hold LF up to the likes of Walker, McFadden, etc.

No it wouldn't.
Ingram had 3 games of less than 60 yards rushing and 5 games with less than 100 yards rushing.

LF has 1 game below 150 yards rushing.

You act like lsu fans started that. The media and Walker himself said he was as good or better.

it's not all about stats, when will you ppl realize this. Ingram had multiple heisman moments. fournette just blew his only shot in spectacular fashion. that is what many voters will remember as the defining moment of his season. and there's nothing he can even really do about it at this point. it's part of his legacy.

Mark Ingram's TEAM went undefeated and won the NC.


If LSU doesn't get into the SECCG, it is unlikely LF7 wins the trophy, unless he literally, and I mean literally, runs for 220+ on every team he plays coming up.

If Henry runs for 150+ on MSU, 180 on Auburn, and 150 on Florida, he wins the trophy more than likely.

but Gerhart didn't lead his team to the ship, so despite his better stats, he didn't win. bc that's how heisman voting works.

Has nothing to do with it. Title are a team accomplishment. Heisman individual award.

And you're the only one who thinks that how well the team is doing doesn't matter.
