I forgot Lacy missed a game

I'm sure Lacy would have went for 6 TDs to tie Hill though.

Fournette likely does go for 150-200 and 2-3 scores in the opener at home vs a cupcake though.

So basically you agree that Fournette was good/great in all but the Bama game?

I disagree. I think Henry is a combine freak but there is a tradeoff with other physical attributes that are important. I don't think that's the case with Fournette. And I don't see Henry running a 10.6 in HS.

I am not saying that LF7 isn't good or even great!

I am just saying that it is not a known fact that he is better than Henry.

Alabama RBs have performed better over the last 3 years than LSU rbs in the NFL, broseph.


Neither Lacy or Ingram are as good as Jeremy Hill. They're about as good as Ridley (4.3 ypc)

Lacy (4.3 ypc), Ingram (4.3 ypc), Trent Richardson (3.3 ypc)

I just like how the better RB debate changes criteria depending on which Bama RB this board wants to downplay. It's ok to admit that Alabama produces great players. No other LSU fans will think less of you.

And Henry would have blown his numbers out of the water if we caried enough to give him a lot of runs vs our shitty teams.

Because booger wasn't deserving of being a first team AA. Simple really.

Hell yeah Bama produces good players. The heisman should go to Bama players like Amari Cooper or someone in that front 7 (that NFL front 7 is the reason Bama isn't a 3+ loss team).. not to decent but not great running backs like Henry.

It's ok to admit that Derrick Henry is better than decent. Why do so many of you struggle with this. LF is unbelievablely fantastic. There, see how easy that was?

Dude, Jeremey Hill's ypc this year is 3.6! Do you just pull statements out of your arse?
