I'm trying to be your friend here. Edit this opinion and remove it if you ever want another football opinion of yours to even be considered around here.

Some friend you are. O wait I forgot we live in a day and age where opinions that differ from your own do not belong and are considered offensive... Why don't you go find a safe space bud.

I just think your opinion is absurd and ignorant. Good enough for you?

No, no it is not. Why don't you express your view and back it up with real data and facts. Instead of just running around calling people you don't agree with ignorant, racist...etc. This is a platform for educated debate among football fans and all you have to say is I don't like you, you are ignorant... I think you might be the one who is in danger of not being taken seriously. I would love to hear your thoughts on why LF7 is the greatest but no, all we get is garbage spewing from your hole.

Broussard was the best in the 2000's. Had he not gotten hurt...

The main difference in the 2000 decade was our ability to have so many very good backs share the load. Sure there were years where one back got more touches than another, but we didn't have one guy go start to finish like a Hilliard or Faulk did.

LF is the 4th leading rusher in LSU history. The 3 above him got their stats in 4 years. LF in 3. He's 200 yards behind Charles Alexander and 250 behind Dalton Hilliard all time. Data and facts.

Lol says the guy with zero data to backup his claim. Fournette is top 5 in every single rushing catagory in school history, he holds the single season rushing record here by a wide margin and led the nation in rushing. Has Guice done any of these things? You can spin it all you like but if we are comparing facts you're right it's not close Fournette is better by a mile and if we are talking football knowledge come talk to me when Guice is a top 5 pick in the NFL draft. Lol Fournette had more rushing yards in one season than Guice has in his entire career.

Run Guice between the tackles every play and see how it goes.

People act like LF7 can't run outside or catch passes because Les Miles couldn't figure out how that worked

LF7 was big fast and agile. Lea chose to use him like a battering ram.

aldo, what amazing defense has Guice lit up? Missouri? A&m on 37 carries?

LSU best back 90 Cecil Collins


you're gonna award the Best RB of the 90's decade to a kid who played in 3 games (@MSU, AUB, Akron), and just 3 carries @ Vanderbilt before his career at LSU was done ?

I'll award him the RB who had the most potential at LSU, but also was the most immature.

Calm down everyone.. I know as an LSU fan it is taboo to speak negatively about Buga. I am just giving my opinion based on what I have seen. Obviously Buga has the stats.. he ran the ball every down for 2.5 years... But the eye test (not claiming to be an NFL scout) tells me Guice is much more athletic and dynamic. I think I would prefer him in my backfield. But I understand why everyone is a LF7 homer...

You're right and before last season Guice avged less than 2 yards per carry vs ranked opponents. Fournette never had lows like that at anytime in his career. I love Guice but until he surpasses Fournette in anything it's simply biased unproven opinion to say he's better. You won't find anyone involved in football who'll tell you Guice is better than Fournette.

How did Guice do vs Bama? Compare their numbers vs all ranked teams and get back to me.

Lol maybe the weakest argument ever on the Rant. Most ignorant too. Selective stats and biased ignorant opinion is all you've presented absolutely zero fact based comments. Your base is the Arkansas game, Guices best game ever vs a game where Fournette was injured yet still managed 98 yards and 3 tds (more than Guice btw) lol. Why not compare Florida 15 or Ole Miss or Auburn 15? So dumb.
