against Texas Tech? If he does he will be the first SEC tailback to ever rush for 2000 yards in a season. Think about this, if LSU hadn't committed about 4 penalties on huge gains he would already be there. Derrick Henry's came with 2 more games, and he didn't have to play Alabama. Who is the real best tailback in the nation? It ain't even close. If both were in the draft all 32 teams would take Fournette over Henry, and if Fournette was in Crimson, Henry would be a back up. Fournette is as classy as they come too, if you get a chance, listen to his interview on the Sedano show. Fournette says everything happens for a reason, the weather killed the McNeese game. I think he comes out next year and obliterates single season records. He is unlike any other football player (as a human being) save Warrick Dunn maybe. Dude is all class, great human being and football player. Glad he is a Tiger. We know who the best player in the country really is.
No, I wasn't bashing Saban for that, but it is telling. Tells me that they had to throw the kitchen sink at the season and Fournette has 2 less games.
He'll need to get that much for LSU to win. If Harris can complete a few when they stack the box I bet he comes close. If Harris implodes like he did down the stretch not a chance.
If he does, I hope it's with 25 or so carries. We need to work on our passing game. That is more essential to winning more games in the future. LF7 is my favorite player, but I'm a fan of the LSU football TEAM 1st and foremost. My vote is no.
