Leonard Fournette running at you with a full head of steam has to be the most terrifying sight in college football if you’re a defensive player. He showed why on Saturday.
Late in the first quarter of LSU’s game against Ole Miss, Tigers quarterback Danny Etling completed a pass to Fournette with the All-American running back having room to square his shoulders and head up field. After doing so, Fournette was confronted by Rebels defensive back Deontay Anderson. What followed was sheer mayhem.

Here’s another angle.
Saturday was Fournette’s first game since September 24 due to an ankle injury and he looked every bit of his old self. He had 171 yards on just six carries with two touchdowns in the first half.
