Nick Chubb

/thread

ETA: I understand Royce Freeman is talented, but Chubb has already proven to be a workhorse.

Chubb's #1 to me...proof's in the pudding with his production.

think Fournette will join him on the list when he's not splitting carries with seniors. Still, I'd like to see him hit holes faster rather than looking for contact, which is what he does alot.

Yep Chubb and Freeman are probably #s 1 and 2 right now. Am I forgetting anybody from the list (I'll add to the list)

Fournette is also running against 10 man fronts because LSU can't throw the ball to save their lives. Georgia doesn't have an amazing passing game either, but it has to be better than LSU's.

Chubbs and there's no argument otherwise.

Yeah. Only 1 corner on the field covering two receivers. That's how bad Jennings is.

They are all amazing RB's. I really like that Wilson kid. Cook is doing really well considering FSU has HORRIBLE run blocking. Chubb is incredible.

Have you seen him play? LSU could have 5 WR sets versus zero DBs and he would still throw it in the dirt.

I watch every LSU game because A&M is obsessed with LSU. I actually do watch every game, but I grew up an LSU fan.

LSU lines up in 22 personnel fairly often.

In Conference Play

Hutson Mason:

68.7%
13 TDs
3 INTs

Anthony Jennings:

45.1%
4 TDs
3 INTs

Think about that. Jennings is cataclysmically terrible.

Chubb is definitely awesome and having a great year. I was just saying that even if Georgia's passing game isn't great, it is still infinitely better than LSU's. Fournette has to get a little credit for that

Hurd is playing behind an absolutely horrendous o-line, but it will be interesting to see how having Dobbs at QB will help him down the stretch.

He said his goal is to get to 1000 yards (402 in the last 3 or 4 games).

He is pretty much the only healthy RB Tennessee has now, so he should get plenty of carries the rest of the way.

we have a much better passing attack than them and it's not that close. we also have a much better rushing attack than them, and chubb is better than fournette at this point in their careers. no idea what the future will hold.

im not gonna fall into the "win an argument about who is worse" trap. we are better than them offensively in pretty much every facet and it's not close.
