Despite setting a series of Louisiana high school records during his decorated prep career, the most memorable moment of Nick Brossette’s first three years at LSU were his coach referring to him as a third-string running back after an infamous fumble against Troy.
Perhaps then it’s actually poetic that Brossette was the third running back in the game against Miami on Sunday night.
The senior admitted afterword that he expected to start the game, but by the time his night was finished, there was no doubting his fitness for first-string status anymore.
