Can someone please tell me where RS was in the last game? after all the talk about getting the ball in his hands more and the no flops rant where did he go?
He was on the kickoff team and on the bench. Pretty much sums up his sseason, minus that awesome diving TD over the pylon he made.
I really would like to see RS throw a pass in the bowl game but I know it won't happen. I really wanted to see JJ benched last year before the BCS championship but I didn't get that either. I can't complain about CLM's record but disappointed by these two (above) issues, clock management, too conservative offense, and bad decisions at critical times during games. There has been no team in the country more talented than LSU the past two seasons yet we'll be playing in the Chick-fil-A bowl.
Gonna miss Shep, the real team player. Looking back, he might have done better playing the same position his brother Nick did.
Check out the #1 draft picks that Alabama had last year and tell me we were the most talented. We were certainly among the most talented, but the not THE most. And this year? Are you kidding me? Again, we're talented, but not the most talented. As for the Chic-fil-A Bowl, the SEC is going to end the year with two teams with one loss and four teams with only two losses. One of the teams will go to the BCSNCG. One team will go to the Sugar Bowl. We'll go to either the CFA, Cotton, or Capital One Bowl. We don't know, yet. But the SEC is far too top heavy for every one of the top teams to go to a top bowl. However, after the winner of the SECCG and Florida, we should be the next highest ranked SEC school--which may or may not count for something at bowl selection time.
Its all up to UGA vs. Bama... Bama wins, they get NCG, UF goes to the Sugar. UGA gets Cap One, and LSU goes Cotton. (No aTm in Cotton... they want to fill their hotels, not their highways.) UGA wins, they get NCG, UF goes to the Sugar. Bama gets Cotton, LSU goes Cap One or Chick.
I'm with most of you guys......while maybe not living up to the hype.....Russell Sheppard has been a class act when it comes to LSU, and I would love to see LSU do something special for him in his last ever game at LSU!! It's been an honor and a privalege to follow this young man for 4 years....I hope he is succesfull in all his endeavors!!
i just wish he would have honed his craft. should he really be praised for not jumping ship? reminds me of the chris rock skit that michael scott likes.
