Its hard to believe this guys is a freshman. He was running routes against high school kids this time last year. He's just so strong...

He's going to be a true beast for the next few years.

PP had him covered like a blanket in OT, and still made that catch. Dude is a manimal.

I was very impressed with this kid. I was getting so pissed that our guys kept trying to tackle him high because he was just running over them. I hate to say it (not really) but you get this kid for 3 years and he leaves for the NFL.

True, but one thing we LSU fans have learned this year is that having a beast of a WR is real nice but you also need a decent QB to get him the freaking ball. Hats off to JPW for his best game against LSU.

I hope this doesnt hurt his NFL value next year bc I sure dont want him to try to prove himself to the scouts as a Jr..

His best game? Sure he made some good throws, but he also made a butt load of crappy throws, and a couple of fumbles(not lost). Not to mention the stupid cell phone thing. FAR from his best game.

Lee is trying to take Reggie Ball's crown.

Peterson actually played well against Jones a lot today, but Jones is a freaking man.

Three defenders trying to tackle him and he wouldn't go down.

Julio is a special player but the future of him and Patrick Patterson will create some interesting matchups in the future.....

Yep, Jones is a stud for sure. I like Green but to be honest Jones looks a lot stronger/more athletic.

Huh, I said his best game against LSU.

You won because JPW threw some good passes to Julio. With Lee, you lose badly.

JPW actually played very well against us in BR in 2006 I thought.

You are correct. 2006 was prolly his best game. He took some big hits but stayed in and played well. Of course, they lost though.

going to see some great Jones/Peterson battles for 3 years. Peterson made some very nice plays....maybe we will realize that Peterson is the only guy on our squad that should ever be on Jones. He will abuse our other DB's more often than not.
