LF7 still managed to score in that game, and probably would have gotten another 50ish yards and a second TD had we gotten an onside kick or our defense hadn't been exhausted on Bamas last possession.

It still doesn't make sense that he wasn't at least a finalist. And laughable that he was 6th in the voting. He had his "Heisman Moment" and everything, flipping that poor Auburn DB over his shoulder like a ragdoll.

I'm even more disappointed he didn't get the Walker though - I thought maybe they would actually know what too look for in a running back.

I'm not even mad about Fournette not winning it. Christian McCaffrery broke Barry Sanders's record for all-purpose yardage in a season and got snubbed.

That right there shows how much of a joke the Heisman is now.

Agreed with our offensive scheme and Oline, play calling Henry would have gotten about 15 yards. LF behind Bama's line and scheme would have gotten +250

Henry earned the Heisman. Fournette did not (yet). Deal with it.

LF7 v "Heisman Winner" Derek Henry

But Henry didn't run against alabama defense.

Everyone realize the Heisman is a vote for the best performance.

Not necessarily the best player.

Having a better team enhances your chances, a QB without good receivers and a good line while being the best QB would have a hard time winning.

Running behind the BAMA line and not having to play the BAMA defense and playing two more games will give you a better performance.

Not hard to understand
