sorry didn't see this posted anywhere, but Harry Coleman was named MVP of the Tigers football team. Coleman Named MVP at Football Banquet - LSUsports.net - The Official Web Site of LSU Tigers Athletics so, who was your mvp? I think a case can be made for Josh Jasper, Patrick Peterson, Chad Jones, Kelvin Sheppard, and Charles Scott because of what happened to this team when we didn't use him, and then when he got hurt. But if i had to choose, i would pick Peterson.
I think Peterson was selected co-defensive MVP along with CJ. You can make a strong argument for PP over Coleman, although the stats don't back you up. That's mostly because teams didn't throw at him very much later in the year. I was surprised that Peterson got nothing on the AP All-American team, and that Black did make it.
didn't he lead the SEC in passes defended or some weird stat? Coleman didn't even lead the team in tackles. Kelvin Sheppard did, so did Coleman get the award because of his willingness to accept a linebacker role as a senior? I think the reason Peterson was the MVP is because of the Alabama game. If Peterson doesn't cramp up who knows, plus a pick was robbed from him. He had a couple of touchdowns also.
