BATON ROUGE, La. -- Say what you want about the name LSU is facing this week, but LSU coach Les Miles knows his team won't play a more accomplished running back this season than Towson's Terrance West.
He set an NCAA FCS freshman record with 29 rushing touchdowns last season for the Tigers and has continued that torrid pace with five more in the first three games for Towson (2-1), ranked No. 12 in the FCS's Sports Network poll.
"He's a talented player," Miles said. "He's elusive, has good ball skills."
