Kenneth Dixon Passes Keenan Reynolds for Most TDs in FBS History
Keenan Reynolds' record has fallen—for now.
Louisiana Tech Bulldogs running back Kenneth Dixon became the FBS' all-time touchdown leader after notching the 86th of his career during the Bulldogs' matchup against the Arkansas State Red Wolves in the New Orleans Bowl on Saturday, per Dane Brugler of CBS Sports.
Dixon has had a stellar career since becoming the featured tailback at Louisiana Tech.
It all began in his freshman season, when he ran for 1,194 yards and 27 touchdowns. If not for a sophomore year that resulted in only five total touchdowns, his lead over Reynolds could have been greater, making the Navy signal-caller's game in hand irrelevant.
Not only did Dixon surpass Reynolds in the touchdown race, but he also set a New Orleans Bowl record with four scores against the Red Wolves.
RedditCFB provided a clip of Dixon's record-breaking score:
CBS Sports projects Dixon to land in the third or fourth round in the upcoming NFL draft. At 5'10" and 213 pounds, he has the build of someone such as Robert Turbin, with more speed. Tom Fornelli of CBS Sports thinks you should be looking to add him to your fantasy team next year:
"You should watch Kenneth Dixon cuz he’s gonna be the rookie RB you never heard of that you pick up off the waiver wire in fantasy next year.

Dixon's career has been a successful one, to say the least. Louisiana Tech has had a winning record in three of Dixon's four years with the Bulldogs. The team's one losing season was his sophomore year, the five-touchdown year. As he enters the draft, he could be a highly touted running back and serve as a weapon out of the backfield at the next level.
Reynolds broke the record earlier this year, and he'll get a chance to get his record back Dec. 28 against the Pittsburgh Panthers in the Military Bowl.
