As noted, according to his interview in The Advocate today, he "was out of shape, over weight (+13 lbs), and still not 100&. He had to keep pulling himself out in the second half. Imagine HAD he been in shape & 100%. Also said "everyone around me kept telling me to sit out the rest of the season but I could not do that to my teammates.

Broussard also posted on his Facebook that Fournette broke the record on the same exact play Broussard ran to break the original record, toss dive left.

Assuming he bounces it outside and scores there, he'd have finished with 15 for 324 yards and 4 TDs. He'd have the SEC single game rushing record and the SEC yard per attempt record (with at least 10 attempts) at 21.6 yards, 2 yards per attempt clear of the previous record.

To paint an even better picture of how good he was Saturday night - finishing the night on that drive with 4 rushes for 30 yards, 7.5 YPA, kept him from getting the YPA record at 21.2 YPA.

It is because he hasn't had a good game against them. We said a lot of the same stuff to A&M fans after being the only team to stop Johnny football.

Yeah, ridiculous.

After the 3rd TD he was averaging 32.5 YPC on those 8 carries.
