my point isn't stupid though. these kinds of things often decide the heisman. which was exactly the case for Johnny football.


Yes, it is. You're arguing that Fournette may not win it because of one game, which is stupid.

If Fournette doesn't win it, it will be because he gets outplayed for the remainder of the season by one of the other contenders. End of discussion.

it's not just one game though. it was the biggest game of his career.

if he doesn't win it, it will literally be because of how he performed on that stage.

it's part of his legacy now.

All Saturday did for LF was allow others to get into the talk. If LF would have rushed for over 100yds and at least 2 TDs the discussion would be over and LF would be the frontrunner without any doubt. Saturday allowed players like Henry and whoever else have a say now.

What will also hurt now is if UA wins out. Henry will get an extra game on the big stage once again in front of the voters while LF is at home. Actually the OSU RB should as well and Baylor WR since they play a regular season game in December.

When the voters try and determine who it should be it will come down to the eye test. And who they see last along with who did what in the big games will be the deciding factor in the end. Stats will not be in LFs favor if he plays one less game especially considering LSU already will have one less in the end. Is it fair probably not but it is what it is.

Also after I saw Saban keep Henry in until the clock ran out and kept running him over 200yds I believe Saban is going to keep Henry in the talk by letting him get the ball. So the stats will be there.
