Well Bucky, LSU education has been questioned before.
I have no way to compare my education to yours....I just fix bones and joints for living. Who am I to label one education superior to another?
On the other hand, I believe I adequately addressed several dynamic views on the upcoming game. After your last, hyper-focused comment, I went back and looked at his yards in the bowl game. Impressive. More precisely, that is the most impressive performance of the year. The rest of the year reflects great performances against vastly inferior teams.
Now, will you acknowledge that Gordon had 68 yards vs Iowa when our back attained 217?

I can only hope you are more thorough in your patient exams than you displayed here. Previously you would have appeared to be a candidate for the doc who mistakenly removes the wrong leg. ;)
Of course I will acknowledge his game in Iowa. Just as you will acknowledge that our STARTER went for 132.
I don't know why you would compare our backup to your starter. Shouldn't we really be talking about Blue?
And I know you will acknowledge that our offense accrued more yards and points against them despite having worse speed and athletes.
No matter what you say, the NFL has noted his talent. You can stat your way to whatever you want to believe. For example I could easily argue that his lack of touches greatly hinder MG. Not only does it hurt rhythm but MG is a home run hitter. Thus more carries greatly increases his chances of impressive stats.
Stats are our attempt to quantify and understand what happened. Using them without understanding context is perilous at best.
For example, I could easily look at your game against Iowa and say either that you QB sucked or that Iowa completely shut down your passing game based on stats. Would that be a completely accurate picture of the game?

Completely irrelevant.
