It must be nice to have Leonard Fournette in the backfield when the play-action pass you called gets blown up immediately.
Fournette took a Brandon Harris pitch 48 yards in the first quarter of LSU's game at Syracuse after the quarterback got pressured and began going to the ground. Fournette had stayed in to block, but no pass rusher came through his gap, so he circled behind Harris when the play fell apart.
