re: So who is this week's better running back than LF?

In their defense, their running back is a spectacular runner.

I'm actually an LSU fan. Just hate homerism and the loser desperate mindset that football ceases to exist at a high level in Tuscaloosa and Columbus when we finally get on a relatively comparable level to them for 1 year. LF7 has put himself in a great position to earn the Heisman down the brutal finish of a stretch we have. But as of yet, he hasn't done shite that deserves the same respect from the average college football fan that Zeke earned last year. Zeke went against the best and beat the best in a brutal fashion. Looking forward to seeing LF7 go against the best.

I'm excited about LSU being a contender this year. But its almost like people on here have equated our number 5 ranking through 7 weeks to Ohio State's championship. LSU has not won a game yet that the 10th best team in the country wouldn't be favored in. Buckeyes won at least 3(neutral site Wisconsin would be close) in the second half of last year. Zeke rushed for an average of 212.5 and had 10 TDs in those 4 games. So I don't really care if Fournette has a little better stats this year because he rushed for 100 more yards against Eastern Michigan and Syracuse than Zeke did against Hawaii and Maryland. Let's see how they do against Ole Miss, Bama, Michigan, Michigan State, and their championship games/postseason.
