    He is out of his league and he also allowed a huge pass play. He is a career special teamer at best.

    I understand, but I think it is the upside the Tigers have. Every team in the Top-10 also has questions, fortunately. If LSU continues to improve (and we surely have room) we just might get through November. We will have the opportunity to beat two top-10 teams. Some folks think we haven't peaked yet.

    Well, Beckwith got beat in coverage last night, too. But at least he recognized the play and covered, which he didn't always do last year. Like the play Riley played zone when the rest of the defense played man and let his man get wide open for a bomb.

    Beckwith definitely hasn't played dominant this year like Minter did in 2012.

    Of course they do. They were talking about it on Game Day yesterday regarding Ohio State.

    I agree. OSU has looked WAY worse than LSU this year. Doesn't make me feel any better or different. But teams do play up and down to the opposition.

    LSU seems to do it every game every season with a few ass whoopins sprinkled in there, so I'm not just talking about this year, I'm talking about every year.
