I think we've lowered the beast bar if we are counting OJ as a beast. I think its fair to say he's a freak, but he hasn't gone beast mode on anybody yet.

That was a really nice catch against Auburn though. We now know for sure he can high point the ball. Still not beastly though.

On offense I think Nudie is our top beast, at least for skill players. I put Henry in the freak category for now too. Trent was a beast, Eddie was a beast, julio was a beast, even mark Ingram was a beast. But those guys would run through a brick wall.

I guess he hasn't beasted yet, but I don't think he isn't what we thought he was, I think even though he didn't do much more as a Freshman, it is a Sophomore slump, if you will. Statistically has he slumped? No, but he hasn't met expectations. Another part of it can be attributed to Blake mostly keying on Cooper, and some of it can also be that Cooper is the best WR CFB has seen in some time and you have to feed him no matter who else you have.

I think OJ goes for 1000 next year, if we still have Lane.

that kind of play should be open to him every single down. nobody in cfb can cover that. if he gets his hands right, he should be the go to target in possession situations next season.
