Cam Rob was 1000000x a worse blow than Collins.

He's a much better player and in a position of need. Collins was a solid college safety, but LSU DB's have been filthy for a lonngggg time.

Man we could use Cam Rob next year though.


ETA:

I am salty AF about CR. Hate losing such an elite guy to Bama.

Landon Collins was never the best player on your team.

It's much harder to be the best player at Alabama than it is at LSU. Playing at Bama is like playing on an All-Star team every year. Playing at LSU is like playing on a, well, like playing on an 8-4 irrelevant team.

maybe not but he was a unanimous all-American and first team All-SEC. Was Kwon?



Please man. If you say a players name enough during a game, every game, they are going to get votes. Landon Collins wasn't better than Jamal Adams last year in any way shape or form. They Connor kid at Ole Miss was better than Landon Collins.

It is laughable that you are even trying to compare Kwon to Landon. First of all, I don't think an Auburn or Alabama fan even mentioned Kwon's name during his career at LSU. This compares to the constant buttburt LSU fans expressed over Landon. Second of all, Kwon could have won more championships during his career at either bama or Auburn

We have elite talent at LSU and you know it. Grow up.

He was a very solid player on a perennial power and top 10 defense.

Adams and Connor are both better.

Ok. I guess every single person who selected All Americans this year disagrees with you. But you're probably right.

You think half of the voters research their vote?

"Oh..Landon Collins. Yeah hes the kid who had the crazy mother and he plays for Alabama. I also hear Brent Musburger gushing about him. He gets my vote."

They hit the nail on the head with Morris Claiborne I guess.

Claiborne, like Collins was an elite player made better by a supporting cast.

I think there are questionable All-Americans every year from all over the country. Its filled with very good players that are popular names from powerhouses. There have been LSU all americans I didn't think were the best at their position in the country.

Adams certainly wasn't getting it as a true freshman that didn't play the entire season as starter.

Good point. There are a lot of questionable unanimous All-Americans every year. The lengths that some of you tiger fans go to, to play down a world class talent like LC is bewildering.
