The New Orleans native was a finalist for the award in 2015 after his record-breaking sophomore year, and goes into this season with 803 yards on 117 attempts. Fournette has eight touchdowns, while averaging 133.8 yards per game which leads the team.
Even with missing three games due to injury, Fournette has rushed for 100 or more yards in all but two games this season, as against Ole Miss at the end of October he ran for an LSU single-game record 284 yards and three touchdowns in the win, as the yards are the fifth-most for any player in a game nationally this season.
