He made a great living on poor football teams who were scared to tackle him... Allen was right they weren't going to be taking hits like those other teams, they gave them... all the great runs by LF are against cream puffs(1 defense in the top 50). I thought he was supposed to be running mad last night and sitting people up...

Some of y'all still pumping LF for Heisman are marshmallow soft... he failed on the biggest stage he will play on this year. No Heisman. I mean not even 50 yards. Most said if he had a big game he was a lock. What is he now? I think it looks worse if he goes out and has big games against the rest of the pastries they have to play.

Henry trucked through what was supposed to be a good defense with what was supposed to be a subpar OL right?

Henry deserves the Heisman as much if not more than LF. And you mindscrewd Bama fans saying fournett still deserves it sound like the parents of kids who get 6th place trophies. #5inarow

Henry is the most outstanding college football player in 2015.

He should run pretty well against toaster strudels like Arkansas, Ole Miss and TAMU. I still think he gets it after post big numbers against these tomato can defenses.

Preach it.....L5U played a Charmin soft schedule to date and were exposed.

LF is still a generational talent. Henry is really good, but be honest, which offensive line, play calls, and quarterback would you take in a game? Henry had the luxury of being on the better offense whereas LF was stuck running "inside" drills against the best front 7 in football.

Too much media exposure for LF anyways. He's a lock. No one else has specials on ESPN right now like he does.

It will take a fake girlfriend Manti teo exposure to bring him down

Fournette probably would have had 300+ yards running for Alabama last night. :lol

Henry would have had about what LF had running against Alabama last night.

These threads crack me up. I'm a huge Henry fan, but come on. He's nowhere near Fournette level.

Henry is a very good back but I mean if you watched the game, there is no way any RB would have success running in LSU's offensive system behind that line yesterday. They got man handled and Fournette had zero holes to run through. At times he broke a tackle or two, then he was getting hit by three more defenders. I give credit to Alabama, that is a NFL front seven, and yall just flat out embarrassed our line. Our lack of offensive creativity is astounding, Les and Cam are morons. Fournette is just as good as anyone else, don't be fooled, but now I question our offensive line. Are we really that bad? Like WTF did the staff do for two weeks.

But L5U fans told us for weeks that their OL was great and that LF would run for 150-180

Bama's OL is just okay... not even as good as last year's tbh. Lsu fans even reminded us of this for 2 weeks and they were right. Henry look great had awesome vision showed great power and burst. He cut through some holes you can barely see. LF is a special player... he's no more of a generational player than Henry who actually has broken generational records. They run different and that's it. Because most like the way fournett runs better, doesn't actually make him better.

Exactly. It gets so confusing trying to keep up with the ever changing L5U narrative.

Now after the game they have basically told us what many Bama fans said all along, that L5U is a one man team.

For two weeks we heard that L5U's offense was far superior to Alabama's. It was one of the strongest narratives on the rant. Now they aren't good. Figures.
