Tell me something. What makes Henry's numbers so impressive to you guys? Since 2011 there have been 7 players rush for 1900 or more yards. What makes his 1750 so special where the rest of those players failed to win the Heisman.

Melvin Gordon had almost 2400 last year and still lost to a QB. Andre Williams had 2102 and finished fourth. Both had an equal or higher yards per carry to Henry. Gordon had 7.5 ypc.

Bo Jackson won the Heisman in 1985 with fewer yards and touchdowns than Henry has now. Not every single year is like the other.

Because no player in SEC History has ever ran for more yards with fewer carries.

Only Hershel Walker and Bo Jackson had 4 200 yd games in a season, until Henry had 4 in SEC play.

Finally, if the mighty Clemson Tigers get to play Alabama, they'll find out what's so "impressive " about King Henry
