KSU had three or four players carted off the field last night and a whole bunch of guys looking shell-shocked after getting blocked (Joe Adams return) or tackled

Then there's this



DD Jones doesn't hesitate to body slam the KSU running back to the turf; his head makes contact with the ball carrier's helmet and the ground, but when he gets up he looks like an enraged madman

Spencer Hall of SB Nation had this to say about DD Jones and his helmetless tackle:

D.D. Jones already looks terrifying. The Arkansas defensive lineman is huge, has a massive lumberjack beard, can probably squat your house, and looks to be at least 15 years older than everyone on the team. His presence across from you in a three-point stance is already its own horrific fight-or-flight scenario.

When he loses his helmet, though? There may no words for the horror that is D.D. Jones, unconcerned for his own welfare or yours, running into you and finishing with a helmetless piledriver.

I'm proud that my hogs represented the SEC well last night

For the SEC's 9th ranked Defense to handle them like they did, I'd say the Defenses are pretty good.

I hate to bring the past up but you are right...the 2010 season AU hurt more players that year than I have ever seen. Every game at least 2 or 3 went down from the other team...

thats going beast mode

i think most of their team realized after that play, that they were up against something more than they were ready for. DD just went instant legend with that one play

congrats, piggies. did well last night, and had a great season
