Georgia fans have this freaky obsession with Fournette


-obsession? hardly
-it's not just UGA, it's everyone. And it's because...
-LSU fans act like LF is herschel walker, barry sanders, walter payton, bo jackson, and walter payton all bundled into one. If yall didn't slobber all over yourselves for an entire year about the dude nobody would care.

Says the guy who's fanbase worships a RB from the early 1980s. You called your RBs Gurshall a couple years ago

LSU fans weren't the only ones hyping him FWIW. Plenty of media publications were calling him the next AP. He was fellated pretty hard by the announcers in the A&M and ND games.

I have no issue with these except for Alabama. Seems that they are always overvalued in every aspect every year. They are returning one back who was healthy last year and one coming off a major injury. They do not belong in the top 5 until Drake can prove he can be back to full strength.

Think about it guys- Any other team would get knocked for the same situation, but the media darling Bama is not judged by the same rules.

well I mean I just did a quick google search found 3 UGA-fan made threads assuring the SECr that Chubb is better than Fournette. Maybe obsession is the wrong word but I'd be lying if I said you guys didn't care if the SECr thinks Fournette > Chubb in any capacity

Well yea, we had a #3Heismans campaign for Anthony Jennings this year. A lot of the stuff is tongue-and-cheek. Most of the level-headed posters think he has the potential to be great, but he hasn't necessarily made it yet

You registered on the wrong site if you don't want to see LSU fans slobber all over our players. I'd imagine there's an equal amount of slobbering on DawgRant

why does ESPN hate LSU?


quote:

LSU doesn't belong on the same tier as UGA. That's not being a homer, it's looking at facts.

LSU has their big timer in LF. UGA's starter is better/more proven than LF.

Going to 2nd string, which admittedly I don't know so I'm using the link as a resource, LSU's 2nd string guy is a guy with 300 yards. UGA's 2nd string is a guy that didn't play too much due to injury last year but had 400 yards (6.5/carry).

LSU's 3rd string is a TFr I assume? UGA's 3rd string is a guy that ran for close to 900 yards as a TFr and then has mostly been sidelined the last 2 seasons.

I just don't see any practical way you can put LSU even with UGA.


WG_Dawg Is definitely not obsessed.
