Look at RG3 and Andre Ware
Incomparable to LF's situation. Both of those QBs played on teams that are historically well below LSU's level and those QBs elevated their teams to historic heights (for those programs). Those QBs also played WITH less talent than LF plays with.

But judging by Heisman past, if you have a sizable lead in overall stats it does matter.
Also not true.
Toby Gerhart in 2009: 1,736 yards and scored 26 TDs
Mark Ingram in 2009: 1,542 yards and 18 TDs
Caliber of competition and how you play in big games (Ingram had 100+ yards and 3 TDs in SEC Championship) matters a great deal.

This is exactly why. You get a pass on the losses if you play on teams that have lower expectations year in and year out and it is easier to look impressive in losses as a QB than it is as a RB.
