I personally think Fournette is slightly better (or it's even), but can you tell me statistically what makes us thinking Chubb is better than Fournette comical?
There's nothing comical about it. He's the LSU equivalent of the delusional UGA asshat that I've been arguing with.

Look, I'm one of the most complimentary people on here of Fournette, and I think it's ridiculous when people say Chubb is clearly better (or Fournette is clearly better), but I also think it's dumb to try and just dismiss Chubb's run.
It was an outstanding run, I was watching the game. My post was actually directed at Texag7 for
quote:implying (imo) that the Bama game showed Chubb "clearly better" as a common opponent. As you have said, I think they are both elite, and neither is clearly better.
Chubb also had 146 yards vs the 2015 Alabama defense on 20 attempts.

Georgia fans thinking Chubb is as good/better than Fournette.
He's definitely as good, but remains to be seen whether or not he'll ultimately be better by the end of his career. He was definitely better in 2014, was as good in 2015. I would say LF had the slight edge before Chubb's injury. We'll see how Chubb recovers this year.

The fact you can't grasp that this statement is delusional speaks volumes to your mental capacity. Just saying.
Sorry, but its not that simple. Saying something is delusional doesn't PROVE it is delusional. You are gonna have to do some math to prove your point.

It actually is. A comment like that is the definition of delusional.

I'm actually a little confused as to what y'all are arguing about here. I believe based on Fournette's final average, that Chubb's would have been better than 6.5 ypc(especially since it was already at 8.1), but there definitely could have been a drop off against better competition later in the year. It's unknown so no one can definitively say it would have been one way or the other.

This is exactly what I'm arguing.
Him using stats from the first 5 games, extrapolating them out over a 13 game season, and claiming Chubb could easily have a higher YPC is delusional and uninformed.

When 100% I would take the guy with the most heart which is Chubb. Just vs that Bama vaunted front 7 one was going north and south getting 2-3 tough yds per while the other was going east and west and really wanted no part of any of it.

Just stating facts, Fournette wanted no part of that Bama D.

One problem for this discredit attempt: There is no extrapolation going on.
The question is, what would it take for Chubb to overcome a 0.40 YPC deficit after the 1st 5 games?
The answer is, Chubb would need only 5.7 YPC (assuming 180 carries) to finish match LF's 6.51 YPC in 2015.
And thats why your irrational claim of delusion is NOT accurate.

You should brush up on your definitions. I would start with "fact".

To say he could have done it easily, as you did, is what's delusional. Do you really not get that?
Posted on 3/8/16 at 2:53 pm to RB10
Fair enough. It's very easy to see Fournette's talent and his game translates very well to the next level.

In his defense, the toughest team we played after Chubb's injury was UF. Chubb would have racked up the yardage against our remaining schedule.
Regardless, there's no way to prove what I'm saying is fact, but it would have been likely.

Was it likely? I wouldn't say that, but it definitely could have happened. However, to speak like it's a given is one of the reasons why that guy comes across as a complete homer in this conversation.

Considering Chubb has a career avg of 7.4 YPC and it's a BIG drop off to 5.7, "its safe to assume Chubb would have more than made up for that 0.40 ypc deficit" as I said.

Just because you keep throwing the same words back at me doesn't me they don't apply to you.

It is comical. The rest of the world is laughing at you retards for even trying to claim that Fournette is just 'slightly' better than Chubb.
Like someone literally said Fournette 'had a slight advantage' before Chubb's injury. Y'all need to take off the red and black shades.
