You know why we don't make a thread saying what Jimmy Joe said? Because we don't give a frick about what Jimmy Joe said, or Finebaum.

Saying the chance is 0% is just PF being a troll. Fournette is no longer the favorite, but the statement shows PF is just being his usual "dickface with ears" self.

It just depends on the next two game IMO. He will have to go off and have amazing eye popping games. Like 200+ in each game. It is simple as that if he does he is very much back in the discussion.

he will be there, and if he puts together a couple of really good weeks and Henry doens't do much, he could win it.

That should be the headline. That should be posted on Les Miles' coffee cup, his bowl of cereal, his steering wheel and on his forehead for when he looks in the mirror.

He's right and it's pretty obvious to anyone whose not a total homer. You don't win Heismans by looking like crap in your most important game and getting worse as the season goes on. Unless he does something superhuman he is out of the discussion for this year. He will enter next year as the favorite.

Voters look and see Fournette coming back next year and say he's got once more chance.


This was Fournette's year to win it imo. Next year, he'll be sharing more carries with Guice, and possibly Brosette. So IMO he'll have more of a challenge to get it next year if he even sniffs 1400 yds.

Gets a trip but no hardware. Second half drop off too precipitous to salvage, with OM and TAM left I don't believe two 200+ games would save that campaign.

Oh well, next year we'll have Bama at home and can savor another Sabanizing first hand again.

At least he's using the term crisis now, 13-9 in the SEC over the last three years merits use of the word.

No way he wins with the trash on our Oline right now.

Fein-bomb was banned on BR radio because he behaves as a Bama booster, not a reporter.

I give Finebaum a 0% chance of being heterosexual.

In full support for fournette, he will not make it to New York if the team keeps performing like this. Honey badger was the closet thing to winning the heisman. Tyrann constantly made plays out of thin air on the defensive side against teams during the most crucial moments of games. Fournette racked up yards early against lesser teams while the oline overachieved. Coaching has ruined fournette's chances. Finebaum is right. I feel for Leonard, but He has no help and miles handcuffs his talent

He is right...unfortunately. A RB needs some blocking against "quality opponents " to "secure victory"

Paul Finebaum has 0% chance of winning a woman.



My other 2 cents. I know I'd love to have the luxury Les Miles has, like being LSU's head coach, millions in guaranteed salary, get to call my own plays on the offense, and spend my downtime playing no limit poker without having to worry about losing the money. That would be awesome.

0% may be exaggerating, but unless the others falter and he has INCREDIBLE performances in the last 2 games, he is right. He would have overcome Bama, but the Ark loss regardless of his own stats hurt him a lot.

Nothing surprising about this. He also said LF will have work to do to even get to NY.



If a person can lose a Heisman in 2 performances, can't he also win it back with two phenomenal ones?

can we get a ban on posting any opinions of Finebaum from here on out? I honestly don't give a shite what he has to say about pretty much anything. His show is an embarrassment that caters to the LCD.


Have an up vote playa

LF needs to finish the last two games STRONG to have a chance. And that sux. I think it's nuts for people to say in the same breath that he's the best football player but he's out. Heisman is a freaking beauty pageant - such a joke. LF should win based on what he's AlREADY done this year even if he doesn't play another down.
