Achane exploded onto the scene in the second half of his freshman season, scoring his first touchdown on a 30-yard scamper against Arkansas. He would rush for one score and catch another in A&M's 48-3 rout of South Carolina, then carried for 99 yards on just 9 carries against Auburn. He saved his best for last, rushing for 140 yards on 12 carries, including a 76-yard touchdown run that put the Aggies ahead to stay in the fourth quarter.

In virtually any other team in America, the incumbent Orange Bowl MVP would be a starter. But most don't play with Isaiah Spiller. That may limit the number of touches for the explosive Achane, but he's proven to be a deadly change of pace who can also make things happen in the passing game. He may not start in 2021, but he's going to be on the field a lot. Good things tend to happen when he is.
