He is 17 & would start for lsu this year.

He’s thick and strong, can track the ball, has long arms, and runs a 10.1 100m. He’s one of, if not the best WR prospects to ever come out of LA.

One of the recruiting guys, maybe Shea or Spiegs said he's more advanced than Jamar Chase was at this point in HS. Also threw out Devonta Smith comps which was strange since Chase was more physical and Smith probably was seen as an elite speed and route runner. I'll take a combo of both though. :lol:
Here's a couple stats:
#1 in CFB in sacks: Princewill (8)
#1 DT in CFB in sacks: Deuce Geralds (5)
Historically this is also the type of game that Lane struggles. I don't think that's the case this time. He's pushing all the right buttons, and I expect LSU to come out ready and focused.
Some of his layered throws vs A&M were about as good as it gets.
I'm optimistic as well.

Really like our DL and the pressure it's generating. I think the defense as a whole is very good. My only concern is we've only faced one good offense so far (Ole Miss) and we struggled for a half before getting back on track.

I like that we get to play Miss St before Bama because I think it's a good test for the defense before we face a very good Bama offense. Taylor will give us a tough DT QB to face as a warm up for Russell and Bama. Those are also the only high powered offenses we face the rest of the season. Texas is average at best offensively, but very good on defense.

Offensively it's good to see other WRs getting in the mix. Losing Green in the short term may have actually helped, but we need him back ASAP. It's also good to see Berry back in the mix. Sam is settling in, but I'm not totally sold on the OL yet. Gotta prove they can hold up vs good front sevens.

I think 10-2 is very possible, but this team is not at a point where it can lose focus at all or we could end up 8-4. Dropping passes, losing contain or making bad decisions at the QB position could easily result in an L in many of the remaining games.
Well supposedly Florida and Sumrall were making up ground fast for Easton Royal and according to Shea or Spiegs it was becoming an LSU-UF fight over Texas.

That certainly didn't help their momentum.

I don’t notice any of the above last night. The receiver with the TDs looked fast compared to our backups and if he can catch better than Watkins might deserve another look.

If Jayce Brown who the announcers said hit 23mph on gps and was a standout at K State can't crack the rotation, I doubt that other guy would.

How far will mizzou rise? All of the pundits said they shouldn’t even have been ranked this week

Pate is going to get roasted this week. He said Florida should be ranked higher and Mizzou unranked.

Last week I might have agreed, but I wouldn't be lecturing and ridiculing the pollsters the way he did.
Pop's numbers last night from MaxPreps:

25/35 358yds 2 TDs/0 INTs 71.4 compl %, 14.3 ypa.
9 carries 110 yds, 2 TDs, 12.2 ypc

Evangel beat Capt Shreve 46-0.

Don't you mean Qatar? :lol:

Austin Simmons has looked good in the games I watched.
Honestly I think Bama will be a tougher game than Texas. LSU will have to match points in a higher scoring game vs Bama, where I see Texas as a defensive battle. It would be much easier for the Bama game to get away from LSU.

Jayce Brown breakout?

Posted by BayouCowboy on 9/30/26 at 12:42 pm
Last week I predicted Jackson Harris as the breakout player.

I think this week it will be a bit harder to predict. If Winnie Watkins is sat for concussion protocol, I would think Jayce Brown gets a shot as the slot WR. I would say a Eugene Wilson big game would happen, but he's been a steady WR2.

Harlem should get a lot of reps and a chance to solidify the RB2. I don't think Jones will play much. He's already at 78 carries.

This should be a really good opportunity for the young DL to get more reps as well. Maybe Richard Anderson shows out.

Norman? Game is in Dallas. We are just the designated home team.

Shite I forgot. I still think OU plays better than expected.
I expected a 3-1 start with a lot of struggles as the new players acclimated.

I thought Leavitt would have some timing issues, but not as bad as he did early on.

I said I thought the defense would be the best we've had since 2013 which may be true; however, we've only played 1 good offense so far and struggled for a half.

So pretty close to my expectations.

Going forward I think best case is 10-2. Worst is 8-4. I am leaning more toward 10-2, but I'm still not sold on our OL and injuries are a concern.

If Mateer avoids catastrophic mistakes this is a close low scoring game. OU held UGA to 306 yds with 95 yds coming off 2 plays.

With the game being in Norman, who knows? Maybe OU makes a game of it.
Well Baugh is a beast and that run game in general is scary good
Aggie has the #1 class right now. The one player I know we were in a fight for was LB Caden Henderson out of Tampa and Zyron Forstall was a N.O. kid that transferred to IMG.

Maybe we'll break our 4 game 3 and out streak to start the game vs McNeese. :lol:
3 of 4 opponents held under 200 yards. If LSU doesn't start so poorly vs Ole Miss, they'd be a Top 5 team.
