Leonard Fournette trails Nick Chubb in every meaningful rushing stat, as well as the eye test, because LSU's offense hasn't let him run enough, as well as all of LSU's competitors "stacking 8 or 9 guys in the box".


Upvote for "True"

Downvote for "False".



Some stats for reference..

Chubb vs Auburn 19 carries 144 yards 2 TD 7.58 ypc
Leonard vs Auburn 10 carries for 42 yards 0 TD 4.2 ypc


Chubb vs Arky 30 carries for 202 yards 2 TD 6.7 ypc
Leonard vs Arky 5 carries for 9 yards 0 TD 1.8 ypc

Chubb vs Florida 21 carries for 156 yards 1 TD 7.4 ypc
Leonard vs Florida 27 carries for 140 yards 2 TD 5.2 ypc

The Truth about this thread


It's just a creative way of reminding everyone that Arkansas beat LSU.

Both RBs are very good. No need to try and compare stats across games. LF gets fewer carries in a completely predictable offense. Time will tell which one is better. I'd still put my money on LF.

Based on everything we've seen you must not like your money.

I picture UGA fans staying up late at night absolutely paranoid that the entire SECr doesn't think Chubb is better despite nearly everyone , including LSU fans, agreeing he was better this year.

Right now, Chubb is better. Leonard Fournette in an offense where the forward pass is a threat and he gets 20+ carries a game is a scary thought though...

LF is an overrated sack of shite who only looks good against the worst defense in the SEC .

Naw, most of us know who is superior. In fact, most everyone knows who is.

LF is just the latest in a long line of over hyped LSU players.

We all know Chubb is a significantly better back than LF. The real question is how many yards would Chubb have run for against A&M? I'm guessing double what LF did with half the carries.

I was expecting a flame but was pleasantly surprised. I agree. RB by committee hurts us with LF. He needs every carry except for breaks when he's tired.

I'm fine admitting that Chubb has had the better season. Leonard started out slow but has really improved. I'm hoping we can get him more involved in the passing game with short throws in screens.

I would still take LF over Chubb for the next 2 years but I'm an unabashed homer. Both are studs

No the real question is how good would chubb be in an offense that is stuck in the stone age?

They want to stick it to LF and LSU more than they want to praise Chubb. Nobody actually gives a frick about Chubb.
