The days of 30-40 carries per game are over.


Tell that to Tre Mason. His total carries number during his final year at Auburn was 317. He had three games with 30+ carries and had 46 carries alone in the SEC title game.

There are still plenty of workhorses in college football.

But we don't want Fournette to be one of those work horses it would benefit everyone if he shared the load

And they go to LSU so they don't get over-worked and burned up before they can cash in. Tre had an OK year with the Rams in '14 but didn't hit 1000 yards rushing/receiving.
