Derrick Henry led the NCAA in rushing yards and TDs in 2015. Deal with it.

That is absolutely true. But he was not the NCAA Rushing Champion. Also, if LF played 3 more games like Henry did, that also would not be true. =)

What if those three games had been against Alabama?

It must be sad to be reduced to this. And a response thread to boot.

But I've yet to see any reputable source on "NCAA rushing champions", other than those I provided about the three recognized categories.

LSU fans, why do you do this? Why do you perpetually engage in dick-measuring contests with Alabama that you know you can't win? You have a nice, respectable seven-incher. Above average. The ladies (or fellas, if that's your style) will love it. Enjoy what you have. Stop trying to compare yourself to Alabama's mammoth twelve-inch python. You're just making yourselves look like fools when you do.

But he didn't, and Leonard did. How did that turn out?

But it is ok for some Bama posters to throw out LF is a bad running back because he didn't do well against our D. Even though whatever backs are on your roster wouldn't fare any better. Or to bash LF three years later because he didn't sign with you guys.

About the same as it would for any back, Henry included, that Bama really focused on shutting down.

This is like something a broke dick school like Hawaii or Boise crow about. "Timmy Chang threw for more yards than anyone else!" Really sad to see LSU reduced to this but not surprising.

LF is a hard back to judge. Against lesser talent he looked like a man among boys. He absolutely destroyed people. But, he also had a knack for disappearing against real defenses, and not just against us. His game strikes me as incomplete. I don't know if it's his vision or what, but there's something he lacks that holds him back. It's a shame, because in the areas where he is good, he is legitimately one of the best ever. He just doesn't have the total package. Not intended as a troll, just my opinion.

Lee-nard has a line in a stat book.
His peers at Bama have more rings than they can fit on one hand.

Correct me if I'm wrong Bama fans...
Ring total Lee-nard could have if he would have been at Bama:
2014 - SEC West, SEC
2015 - SEC West, SEC, Natty
2016 - SEC West, SEC, Natty TBD

That's seven, with a potential 8th.

You can go to Bama and literally leave the place with a fist full of rings, maybe more.

When Spurrier won 4 in a row, his 96 seniors would have left with 9 rings (but I don't know if they allowed division rings at that time).

If Saban wins it again next year his seniors will match that if they win nothing else, and if they win the natty this year or next, they'll have a ring for each finger on both hands. If they win it both years they'll have to use a toe.

All this and LSU fans want to beat their micropenises to Lee-nard having a line in a stat book.

The Fighting Allevas are idiots.

That sounds about right, but why would anyone want all those rings?

Only had a bad game against Bama last year. His worst rushing totals other than Bama were 91 and 108 yards. You are confusing LSU having bad games vs LF having a bad game.
