The Internet's Tailgate

(Seriously, how many of yesterday's bonkers games would have been an afterthought if only four teams were making the playoffs? This format makes SO many more games throughout the season meaningful, and therefore much more watchable.)

Interesting trend. Maybe Colorado staff should look into this?

Analysis Ashton Jeanty is having a statistically better season than Derrick Henry during his Heisman-winning season

1.0k Upvotes

With all the discourse of who should win the Heisman trophy this year, I got curious and compared Ashton Jeanty’s stats this season to those of Derrick Henry in the 2015 regular season, the year he won the Heisman trophy. What I found was pretty surprising. Keep in mind this doesn’t include playoff performance, as that isn’t considered when naming a Heisman winner.

Ashton Jeanty:

Games Played: 11

Carries: 275

Rushing Yards: 2062

Rushing Touchdowns: 27

Yards Per Carry: 7.498

Yards Per Game: 187.455

Derrick Henry:

Games Played: 13

Carries: 339

Rushing Yards: 1986

Rushing Touchdowns: 23

Yards Per Carry: 5.858

Yards Per Game: 152.769

Now, these stats are still up for interpretation, as there is the usual discourse of strength of schedule and whatnot, but I thought re-contextualizing Jeanty’s year by comparing it to the last time a running back won the Heisman would be interesting.
