    Explain RG3 and Johnny Manziel then. I agree with the ESPN media hype though. In the end though, Henry may have his trophy, but he can't hold the jock strap of the best player in college football, and in 4 years, Henry can serve Fournette his fries.

    Exciting white running QB's appeal to white voters. Kinda like a white NBA star. You gotta vote for them all things being equal.

    To address the question, I will say no. While Tech has terrible run defense, they have been in a passing league, so they have had to focus on pass D.

    Now all they will have to do is stop the run, With a month to prepare, they will get it done I am afraid. I hope #7 runs for 350, and I am pulling for him, but reality is ugly. Geaux Tigers.

    I don't think he will either. I think he will get 250 and Les will sit him.

    That's an awful lot of yards for one game but I say hell yeah, he'll get 'em.

    His "Heisman stock" definitely took a hit from that weekend. Yet, the following week he was still in the conversations about who was going to win the Heisman. The 91 yards the following week against UArk, combined with that game being the second loss, is what pushed him out completely as I see this.

    The theory that sub-100 yard games against OOC opponents like CSU should be a determining factor ... I don't see the logic.

    I'll say No.

    He'll get 150 and the rest of the team will get another 100 or so.

    I hope we line up and give the beast the rock all day and dare TT's shitty run defense to stop us. I believe LF7 will run angry and make some red raiders pay. It was a slap in the face for him not to be in NY. LF7 is the Best player in college football and anybody that can not see that is a blind ass monkey. I hope he piles up 300 on there ass and does the Heisman pose followed by flipping off the camera. We all know he has way to much class for that but damn it would be sweet to see. GEAUX TIGERS!
