2. Lyn-J Dixon is really good

Travis Etienne didn’t have his normal eight yards per carry type of game Saturday afternoon.

Etienne still was solid, but it was Lyn-J Dixon that stole the show in the rushing game. Dixon rushed the ball 11 times for 79 yards and one touchdown.

He showed good vision and hit the holes hard.

Dixon proved Saturday that the Tigers’ future at running back is bright and that they’re going to have really good 1-2 depth with him and Etienne this season.
