    Big Quinn for sure. I don't care that he fumbled the ball once, I wish they'd give him the ball once a game just to loosen up some LBers.

    I also have to give P. Peterson some credit. He made 2 very good plays in the USCe game. Like Les Miles said in the post game press release, PP is going to be "a heck of player for a long time".

    Drake Nevis- Drake is going to be a beast. The kid has a chance to be another LSU All American over the next few years. Tremdous potential.

    Patrick Peterson- What more needs to be said. Peterson will go down as an all time LSU great. His potential is amazing. He needs to get in the game more.

    Ryan Baker- Special teams stand out, always the first guy down. I cant wait to see him next year. He will be a superstar in the future.

    Rahim Alem- Very quick off the end, perfect mold of a speed rusher. Makes big plays.

    Baker is an obvious one...he's looked good on ST. That's when I first noticed Coleman, Sheppard, Riley and McCray knocking heads 2 years ago. I think watching our KO coverage is a great chance to see the younger guys hit people.

    Ridley has been tearing it up on ST so far this year.

    I really like how Riley and Sheppard have played so far.

    My sentiments exactly. He needs more plays! As for the defense, the future is very bright. Once these guys have some experience under their belts, look out.

    There's a good one. Can't believe I didn't mention Tremaine Johnson.

    he's been impressive off the bench for 3 years now. It's also good to see Charles Alexander back on the field these days.

    Any word on Ken Aubrey getting some burn anytime soon? I know d-line is stupid deep, but I'm just wondering if the fellow Bastrop Ram is making any headway down there...
