Bad rap for Julio? He got a td to beat us while pp7 was cramping on the sideline and then got a TD against him when they were down by two scores one year. PP7 kept Julio in check the majority of the time besides one little 5 yard slant TD

I think he played pretty damn good against julio. Its the smaller recievers that gave him trouble.

at times. Not consistently. he was simply amazing. Gets a tad more respect as a corner though because of his athleticism and punt returning. He might be LSU's most electrifying player ever.

Ehh, not sure id say held him in check. Julio averaged over 100 ypg against lsu in his career. They had some great battles. Peterson won some and Julio won some. He beat Peterson on the 20 yard out route in overtime in 2008 that set up the game winning QB sneak.


Peterson is probably the best athlete that has ever played corner in the SEC, and his years at lsu coincided with some great WR talent. Personally, I thought Claiborne was a better college corner. That could be a product of not facing the talent that Peterson did though.
