Another week, another huge game for Leonard Fournette and another epic fail from Texas. The big surprise about this week happened on the west coast though. On to the roundup, because the guys in Memphis are ready for some football…
After starting season 4-0 for the first time in 54 years, Memphis fans be like… http://t.co/3YYNQgGgds

LSU had the early game this week and looked more than a bit sluggish—other than Fournette who rushed for a career-high 244 yards and had another 80-yarder called back because of a penalty.
And with all due respect to Shaq, we heard it from a lot of people before him.

That LSU RB is one bad dude. I would never steal his crawfish.

…and Les Miles’ “brilliance”…
#LSU takes a page out of the #Seahawks playbook, 3 downs at the goal line and they don't let Fournette touch it once. #MarshawnLynch #dumb

Utah even inspired an NFL team to run THIS EXACT SAME FAKE RETURN on Sunday.
Seattle just ran the fake punt reception Utah busted Oregon with last night.
