Maybe because Clyde wasn't having to run out of an I formation in 22 personnel into stacked boxes over and over again.

See, I get all that, but Chubb had to do it too, and he got 146 yds and a TD. Bama still kicked their arse like they did ours, but Chubb lived up to billing.

There's a lot of guys that lined up in the I and ran the ball, and you don't have to make excuses for the scheme when you look back at their stats.

Fournette had a ton of yards in other games, and LSU then, had the same attitude (not scheme) as last year:
this is what we do, and we've got the talent to do it, so we're going to do it to you too.
Nobody throttled Burrow in when we got a lead in the 4th. Similarly, nobody changed up the gameplan simply because of the opponent then- we had Fournette and a big line, and we're going to kick your teeth in. It just didn't happen.
