Getting 40 plus carries the last two games will certainly make you look good, no doubt.

How many trophies does Henry have to rack up before you ppl realize that his season was more impressive than the rest? It's not a fluke that he's winning all of these awards.

so Florida & auburn improved, but Texas A&M, om, and Arky all declined? Got it.


I never said they declined, but it's hard to argue that AnM didn't.
Arkie is a good team IMO and so is Ole Miss, but Arkie was still a 7 win team that lost to State after beating LSU and gave up a ton of points to them on defense. AnM was just straight shite by the end of the season and it's obvious that program has serious issues as evidence by the QB transfers and quitting on their season two years in a row.

And even with all of those carries, he was still at 5.1 YPC those 2 games. Which dwarfs LF's 4 YPC in November.

Yeah that's true- but it Had nothing to do with Henry playing scrubs on the back end and LSU having the #1 SOS in the country for the month of November did it? And Perhaps I missed it, but I don't recall hearing about Henry setting the world on fire the first 7 games of the season.... im sure it's all just coincidental though.

and Henry was stonewalled by that same Arkansas team. What's your point?

The biggest difference is that all of Henry's numbers went up every month while he was carrying Bama to a Championship, and all of LF's numbers went down every month while LSU took a nosedive from #2 to unranked.


LSU had a backloaded schedule. Alabama didn't.

That your November wasn't as tough as some of you make it out to be outside of Alabama.

Even though they were undefeated and in the top 10 they were fools gold, but they hadn't quit yet.

so playing the team that beat y'all and the #2 team in the polls in a matter of 3 weeks isn't a tough month?

LSU was undefeated and #2 in the country that same week, but I thought it was just an inevitable that LSU really wasn't all that good? I mean that seems to at least be the consensus here?

The team that beat us also lost to Memphis.
It was tougher than September and October but come on.

You played Bama and two teams that lost 5 games each. Ole Miss lost to Memphis, UF, and Arkie. They are good but come on.

i mean if you want to move the goal posts with every post, by all means. What good team did Alabama face then? Because LSU played most of the same teams Alabama did

I know right. You would think he was the best coach in the nation and had won 3BCS, 4 SECC, and made 2 playoff appearances.

And? Henry actually played better against tougher competition than he did against scrub teams, and better against tougher competition than LF did. That's another difference.

I said Arkie and Ole Miss were good numerous times but neither is that good. I just merely said your November wasn't as tough as y'all say outside of Alabama.

I wasn't surprised y'all lost to Arkie but I was Ole Miss. I thought LSU would handle them.

Hmm. Maybe y'all do suck.

Kiffin is still getting the blame for the OSU loss for not giving the ball to Henry

I'm tired of that argument. Henry wasn't going to suit up on defense and stop EZE that game, was he?
