The Tigers used that backfield combination -- typically featuring either Darrel Williams or Kenny Hilliard at fullback and either Leonard Fournette or Terrence Magee at tailback -- seven times in last Saturday's 31-0 win against Louisiana-Monroe.

Six of those were short-yardage situations where LSU ran a simple fullback dive, achieving three touchdowns, but opposing defensive coordinators must also realize how that personnel grouping presents other threats.

"Obviously we're not going to show all of what we have in our arsenal, but it could be dangerous and I'm all for it."

Can't wait to see Jennings fake the handoff to the fullback and run the option with LF

If we make them respect the QB and FB then eventually we will have Fournette on a CB or just wide open on the toss depending on how much the bite on the FB.
