The Bama game lost it for him. Y'all remember the UGA fans talking up Nick Chubb that year? Chubb had 146 yds on 20 carries vs Bama. Fournette had 31 yds on 19 carries a month later. And don't blame that on Les, because Brandon Harris had a comparable season (149-277, 2165, 13 TDs 6 int) to Greyson Lambert (UGA QB, 162-256, 1959, 12 TD 2 int). Harris ran for over 200 yds, Lambert ran for -39 on the year. UGA had Sony Michel, we had Guice and Darrell Williams. It was basically the same scheme for both teams, but we had a mobile QB and they had a statue.


Fournette had no chance in that game. We were running that predictable crappy offense with all that skill position talent. Saban just sent the house to run blitz and dominate the line of scrimmage. Fournette in our ‘19 offense would have run for 150yds easy on Bama. All that Bama talent is neutralized when you spread them out and make them play with 6-7 DBs
