re: Chubb vs LF

How many carries did each have last year?

Chubb - 219
LF - 187

Facts to consider in this debate:

UGA passed on 37% of plays and ran on 63%
LSU passed on 31% of plays and ran on 69%

Point: That's a difference, but not enough to say that teams didn't stack box against Chubb. If you're running 63% of the time - and you have Hutson Mason as your QB - teams are stacking the box.

What they meant to their teams:
Chubb - 46% of his team's rushing yards, 39% of his team's carries, and 37% of his team's rushing TDs.
LF - 35% of his team's rushing yards, 30% of his team's carries, and 40% of their rushing TDs.

Point: they were both heavily relied upon and the point could easily be made that UGA relied on Chubb more than LF (so stop the whole "he was our whole offense and teams stacked to stop him" argument...it applies more so to Chubb)

Finally, Chubb had 32 more carries and 513 more yards. LF would have had to average over 16 ypc on 32 additional carries just to match Chubb's production at RB. Chubb wins.
