LSU running back John Emery Jr. tore the ACL in his left knee in practice Tuesday and is expected to miss the rest of the season, sources confirmed to ESPN.

Emery, the Tigers' starting tailback, tore his right ACL in a victory over Florida Gators on Nov. 11. He played in only seven games last season. He had 1,123 rushing yards and 16 touchdowns in six seasons with the Tigers.

A senior from Saint Rose, Louisiana, Emery ran for 61 yards on 10 attempts in Sunday's 27-20 loss to USC in Las Vegas.
