The guy who counted the votes looks familiar...

Same way certain presidential candidates get more air time. Media bias and they push their agenda to the ones who can't think for themselves.

Yeah, because teams don't get better as the year progresses. Also, you don't know what "padding stats" means.

That's ducking stat padding.
Why isolate the Auburn game?
What did each do against A&M? Or Ole Miss? Or Mississippi State?

They clearly were better than Henry over the course of the year. It's a shame these awards are based on popularity rather actual #s.
So why is Henry more popular? What exactly do the award voters have to do with ESPN or whoever you are suggesting sets the agenda?
Going into the Bama/LSU game which player was more "popular" with the voters? LF was.

It's simple here with LF7.
Rush for at least 100 yards against Alabama and even if it's a loss, he likely still gets invited to NYC.
He didn't, he choked.

Henry could have rushed for 6,000 yards and 700 touchdowns this year and this board would have said he sucks. It's the nature of the beast here. Roll tide.

This is just flat out false. LF7 and Cook are both legit backs and deserved consideration for post season awards.
Fact of the matter is that Henry set the SEC single season rushing record. Say all you want about the number of carries (fewer season carries than Herschel), but Henry delivered his biggest games when they mattered the most.
LF7 cannot say that. Dalvin Cook cannot say that.
Did he benefit from his O-line and talent around him? Sure. How ridiculous would it be if they came out and said..."Well, this guy didn't have a great year, but it was his o-lines fault...so here's your trophy".

Oh, he ran over Auburn. Wow! Almost as impressive as Eastern Michigan and Syracuse.

Standard Rant logic...
LF7 v Bama: 19 carries, 31 yards
Brandon Holloway v Bama: 7 carries, 34 yards
Holloway >> LF7
Does anyone think this is true? Probably not...but I am not about to give LF7 an award for it either.
