I agree. He's a beast and a sure thing top-5 pick imo. Alabama is just too good in the front seven to run on this year.I prefer to think that Alabama's defense is just that awesome than that Fournette is over-rated.
I'll second that comment. I think our defense just manhandled LSU. KrymsonmanI prefer to think that Alabama's defense is just that awesome than that Fournette is over-rated.
Just shows that it doesn't matter how good a back you are. If you don't get blocking, you're not going anywhere. KrymsonmanFournette would make an awesome backup to Derrick Henry.Wish he played at Bama.All kidding aside,Leonard is a classy dude and a heckuva player.Just wasn't his night.
I agree ... I believe Fournette will be back to his old pace again next week. The test will be if Old Miss can hold him to a similar deficit, which I'm thinking won't be the case. Either way it goes, he's an elite back that went against one of the toughest run defenses in CFB this year. We played two of the top RBs in CFB this year and kept them both in check. If we look at the stats, they pretty much had similar production. Both had less than 50 yards until Chubb got that one run. (still burns a bit that Chubb was able to break that one run) Saying all that to say that Fournette is still a beast and Henry is a truck of a beast.I prefer to think that Alabama's defense is just that awesome than that Fournette is over-rated.
I don't take that as a joke. Alabama wanted him, and if they had landed him Alabama would currently have a 1-2 punch of Henry and Fournette that might actually better the Ingram/Richardson duo.Fournette would make an awesome backup to Derrick Henry.Wish he played at Bama.All kidding aside,Leonard is a classy dude and a heckuva player.Just wasn't his night.
'Bama D turned him into Leonard Omelette but that last little flurry to get him past one-net per carry will make the front seven hungrier for their next feasting.
On the cat poop board, the LSU fans are saying it is the O-line's fault and he is still the Heisman favorite.I prefer to think that Alabama's defense is just that awesome than that Fournette is over-rated.
