Because its stupid. Henrys strongest run was the final TD. If you are an NFL scout you are taking notice. That game probably made Henry an extra $1m and moved him up 20 draft slots.

What does the fact that he was still running strong have to do with anything? Cadillac ran really strong at Auburn too, right up until he got injured every year. And in the pros too.

That's pretty nuts.

Henry > Caddillac

I guess it doesn't really matter how stats are viewed, the majority of them will support Henry.
Categories Henry leads:
Games played
Carries
Rushing Yards
Touchdowns
Categories Fournette leads:
Total Yards from Scrimmage
Yards Per Carry
Rushing Yards Per Game
Receptions
Receiving Yards
Receiving Yards Per Game
It must suck to be wrong all the time.
Henry has been fantastic down the stretch and deserves the heisman, if he wins it, but so would Fournette, if he were to win it. However, acting like he's better than Fournette is just plain ignorant. They are 1a and 1b at this point.

I bet Fournette ends up with better pro career!

So, now that the stats actually show you're wrong, you've gone from Henry being better to Alabama is better than LSU....
Make sure you keep the wheels on those goalposts greased.

As the OP, I judge which stats are most relevant

Wins are a team stat, last time I checked.

You also used 1 game to make your "definitive" claim. I honestly can't explain how stupid that is.

I think Henry is just surrounded by a better offensive unit, stragedu and play calling. LF is a badass.

For one of the players, I only needed one quarter.

What are you basing this upon? Fournette has more total yards, more yards per carry.
LF missed one game (cancelled) and sat out most of the second half of many others. If he has the same number of carries as Henry, he would have more rushing yards behind a very average offensive line.

LSU's game against A&M vs. the 1st quarter of A&M-Bama.

Well, Fournette doubled Henry's YPC against AU. Maybe I should start a thread to claim that makes Fournette better?
Right?

Meh, Henry also has better vision behind his line. Fournette isn't patient

Oh, I see. One quarter of one game. Sounds legit.

I love that this new narrative for the board.
Also, how many times are you going to change the parameters of what makes one better than the other?
