.....and that Harris was the truth and the passing game would keep us honest and open up holes for LF all night

The phrase was "Well, Fournette will get his, obviously" like it was some sort of command from God written in stone.

I like the change in narrative from they have the best OL to we have a monster OL. Our OL is bipolar as hell. And often puts us in long third down situations. They gave Henry several holes. But Henry made a few holes on his own. He ran through and around LSU, and played a monster game against what has been a good SEC defense.

There is no slowing down Buga. Brandon Harris is the best QB in the conference. Look at his Qbr.

Mark Ingram had ran for 30 yards on 16 carries against the #83 ranked run defense in the nation in the 2009 Iron Bowl. Yet 2 weeks later he was holding the Heisman Trophy in New York City.

Henry deserves the Heisman as much if not more than LF


Fournette (8 games) 7.09 YPC (172.88 YPG) 16 TD
Henry (9 games) 5.75 YPS (139.33 YPG) 17 TD

Fournett is not better than Henry

You can't just be happy with a great win, can you?
You have to go full gumptard on us.

LF is not only better than D. Henry, but better than any other RB in the entire history of Bama football. Even after last night, LF will still most likely gain more yards than any other Bama RB in the glorious history of a team that has always been a power running team. Think about that.

If you gave all 32 NFL teams a chance to take LF or DH after last night,how many do you think would take DH?
Zeereaux would be the correct answer, Forrest.

The only thing last night proved is that the d-line of Bama was as good as advertised and the o-line of LSU was not. It's that simple. Simple enough for the average Gump to understand. Obviously, you are not smarter than the average Gump.

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


Henry was very good, but nothing spectacular at all. He had 210 yards on 38 carries for a 5.5 yard average.
His longest run was 40 yards with a blatant holding (actually bear-hugging) of our LB.

Enjoy the win and slow down on the hardcore gumping.

20 of his yards were the result of a continuous 20 yard long stiff arm that was only stopped by the sideline.

I would think these beat down losses in Tuscaloosa would be easier on you guys than the gut wrenchers in Red Stick, but to each his own.

yes he is. imagine fournette running behind your line.



You mean the OL that is 114 out of 128 in TFL given up? They did play well yesterday though. You guys are just blaming the play calling and OL for Fournette's horrible showing but don't put a single bit of blame on LF. There were multiple times he was taken down by one guy or tripped up. Sometimes those 180-190 DBs were laying some hits on him. You guys are acting like he was breaking 3 tackles in the backfield or it took like 4 Bama players to bring him down most times. Why can't see that he did bad himself? LF is great back no doubt but maybe he's just not AS great as you guys thought.

Ummmm tiger tears... and still fresh. Tastes of ambrosia and watermelon lmbo.

No matter how you spin it Henry is better. What makes fournett so head and shoulders above all other Bama backs in its history do tell? lol. So he ran over a couple of neophytes... what happened when he played men?

I personally think Henry is probably only the 4th or 5th best of our recent outstanding group (Ingram, Richardson, Lacey, Yeldon). His predecessors were all much better receivers then him and all were much quicker. Henry in the 2nd level of a defense is just not fair though.

I am a grown man and have never cried after a loss. NEVER.
I have also never assaulted anyone after a loss.
Can you say the same about yourself and fanbase?

Well, for starters he will probably end up with more yards than any other back from Bama since 1892. How's that?
