If you added up all of his results of games against teams that ended up in the top 25 since he started at LSU (including the Bama bummers), he still averaged like 4.3 ypc against the best teams he faced. He really only choked against Bama. And he was in a Les Miles offense where the passing game never finished above a 100+ ranking and the same 3-4 plays were called over and over against one of the best defenses ever - he wasn't really set up for success against them.



is it choking against Bama if you're hit in the backfield on 75% of your carries? because that's approximately what the stat was.

in 2015/2016 Fournette averaged over 6 ypc in SEC play. D. Henry averaged 5.54 ypc in SEC play in 2015/2016.

Henry didn't play in 16 and in 15 they were separated by .1 yards a carry in sec play. But Henry had a lot more yards per game.
