I don't know who that guy on the Left is, but I do know he is the smartest man in the world

Especially the part about Fournette being better "not even close" he knows Henry can't hold LF7's jockstrap.

Yep that's Trevor Matich. Lots of people called him a fat retard because he said Alabama would beat LSU and stop fournette. Maybe he's sharper than he gets credit for.

Pretty reasonable assessment by both. LF is hands down best back in the country. Henry had a better season. Hopefully LF bounces back hungrier than ever next year.

Only Alabama fans think Henry is the better back.

Henry wouldn't have beaten LF in total yards if LF has the McNeese game. Thats even w the extra game Henry got in SEC CG.

Lulz Todd McDouche said all 3 (Fournette, Cook, and Henry) had similar games against Florida.

Henry:
44 carries, 189 yards, 1 TD

Fournette:
31 carries, 180 carries, 2 TD's

Cook:
26 carries, 183 yards, 2 TD's

oh my lulz

LSU fans would be losing their collective minds if Les was giving Fournette 40+ carries multiple weeks.

Only reason Henry racked up 40+ carries the last couple of games is because Kenyan Drake broke his arm and couldn't give Henry a break, with that being said McCaffrey is the most valuable player in FBS. I do believe Fournette is much better that Henry though.

Henry was getting 40+ carries like the last 3 games, right? Crazy stat padding going on at the end of the season.

So sick of hearing how fornette got snubbed, who do you think shouldn't be there?

All 3 guys are on better teams and had better seasons, just stop being a homer for a minute and realize your beloved clown coach cost him a trip to nyc.

Pretty simple, everyone knows the 3 or 4 running plays we run. When the level of competition increased in November and he couldn't just run over inferior athletes, he looked normal.

He had 31 yards against bama, Henry had 210.

What is his signature "heisman moment"? Running over Syracuse?

The 3 guys there deserve to be there plain and simple, I think buga is probably the most talented kid in the country, but his resume doesn't deserve a spot at the table with those guys.

You do realize the Heisman committee could've invited more than three guys, right?

You do realize they only invite more than when it's a close vote, right? Buga may not have even finished 4th or 5th for that matter in the national voting

To be specific

quote:

This is one of the most misunderstood parts of the Heisman process. You will often hear media or fans complain that a certain player was snubbed by not being invited to the Heisman ceremony. But the finalists are not determined arbitrarily. Starting from the understanding that there will always be a minimum of three finalists, whether or not more will be invited is determined by how close the fourth-place finisher's point total is to that of the third place finisher's, how close the fifth-place finisher's is to that of the fourth-place finisher's and so on


quote:

In other words, the closeness of the point totals determines the final number of finalists. Where major gaps exist, that's where you get a cutoff
