Didn't see it posted already but I could have missed it.

DONT SHOOT THE MESSENGER

quote:

3. LEONARD FOURNETTE & DERRIUS GUICE, LSU
Leonard Fournette had a monster sophomore season, but Derrius Guice showed he has what it takes to stand in the Tigers’ backfield with Leonard.

The 5-foot-11, 222-pounder could earn more carries alongside Fournette, which is a big accomplishment, after averaging 8.6 yards per carry (first in the SEC) while going for 436 yards and 3 TDs last season on the way to earning SEC All-Freshman Team honors from the coaches.

Guice unleashed on South Carolina for 161 yards on just 16 carries with a touchdown. He also went for 73 yards on just 10 carries with a score against Texas A&M late in the season.

If Fournette can maintain the level of play he exhibited last season and Guice can improve on his freshman campaign, look out for these two.


LOL #3. You could at least make the argument for UGA to be ahead of LSU (Although I personally would disagree) but get that Tennessee garbage outta here.

BUGA + Guice = GOAT

I will be so happy when this false perception of Tennessee being good is over with. This hype is stupid. And this year Fournette and Guice could make that 2004 Auburn tandem look elementary

Laughable is the only way to describe this.

Guice alone is better than any back on Tennessee's roster. Buga is the best back in the country.

Dumb list is dumb.

The Tenn backs are both good but they play in the east. See how they do against Florida which is the only east team that tackles.

I love Chubb and hope he has a monster comeback but it was major reconstructive knee surgery. Michel doesnt impress me, decent not elite.

Hurd and Kamara together I believe had less yards and TD's combined than Fournette had the whole year. The. You add in Guice's stats as a true freshman their is no argument. But like others before me have stated, don't read too much into Saturday Down South. They're garbage lol

Wow what a buncha bs buga and guice or buga and williams are the best tandem by a mile. Chubb isn't as good as buga plus he's coming off of an injury. The tennassee guys are a distant 3rd. But that's ok just more motivation for our boys. Can't wait til this season starts.

I would rather read Bleacher Report or pay for ESPN Insider than read the crap that Saturday Down South posts.

Fournette + Warm Body = no worse than 2nd. Consider that 'warm body' got 8.5 YPC last season.

If you want Lf to dominate the end of the season guide needs to have a bigger role earlier on.
