COLUMBIA, MO.• Let’s take a look at the most important matchups for Saturday’s Missouri-LSU game in Baton Rouge:
LSU running back Leonard Fournette &
fullback J.D. Moore
vs.
Missouri’s front seven (or eight)
This, of course, is assuming that Fournette is on the field Saturday. Again Thursday, Ed Orgeron told reporters in Baton Rouge that Fournette will a game-time decision because of his ankle injury. If he’s cleared to play, and gets his normal 20 to 25 carries, he’ll get some help from his lead blocker, the 6-4, 241-pound Moore, who’s touched the ball only three times in his 18 career games.
