The SEC rant spoopgefest over Fournette is mind blowing

They're doing it on a national level too.

Russilo declared him the best player in college football after Saturday.

I think he's really good, but I don't understand as of now, how he's a better player than Chubb if you include both seasons. I mean, he had some absolutely ridiculous runs on Saturday, but he also benefitted from a ref taking out a safety on a play and it probably gave him another 60 yards. This is an LSU-based site, so I get that there are going to be more Fournette fans, than Chubb fans, but I don't get how anyone can clearly say one is easily better than the other, especially with Fournette. Let's wait and see what they do against similar competition this year. Last year, it wasn't even a contest as to who won that argument.

Exactly. Like TM said, the LSU fans finally feel justified in their hype of him because he had his first great game. Chubb goes for 160-170+ and it's just business as usual. That's the difference here.

We should all go start a new thread each proclaiming Lambert a Heisman leader, one of the best quarterbacks ever, in the mold of Joe Montana or Bart Star. After all, he had one really good game against a poor defense. Meets the criteria, right?

Y'all have to understand how many eggs are in the Fournette basket around here. He was quite possibly the biggest and most important recruit that they've ever recruited as far as time and effort. They couldn't lose him. He is a special player just like Chubb, but Nick Chubb was not recruited as the savior of Georgia football.


Fournette came in with the hype and is living up to it. Chubb came in underrated and is far exceeding the hype, so Fournette had a miles long head start in the hype category. People expected him to be great and he is great. I prefer Chubb personally but would take either one in a heartbeat.

If Fournette rushes for 50ypg for the rest of the season, they will not admit Chubb is better. They've devoted entirely too much energy convincing theirselves that he is not

Chubb regularly turns 3 yard gains into 7 yard gains.... It is not sexy, but it puts us in 2nd and short and in a great spot to open playbook options. That is why you look up and he has 140 yards by the 3rd quarter and you don't remember how he got there. That is why he is great. That is why our team can wear down defenses. It is a cumulative thing that the replays and the stats don't fully show.

I knew immediately after his game on Saturday that the SECrant was going to be all over the LF vs. Chubb talk...


It happened all offseason and Chubb had better stats so LSU fans really couldn't talk. But now that LF ran over Auburn's awful defense, they're coming back with the force. It's better to just ignore the BS and let Chubb do his thing, its pointless arguing who is better anyway. They both are better at different things.

ah, ok didn't know that. thanks
