Collins and Rasco Appreciation Thread

While watching the Florida game following what was the worst LSU beatdown we've seen in recent memory, I got to thinking how easy it would've been for La'el and Rasco to enter the draft along with everybody who left last year. There's no doubt they knew this team would have plenty of growing pains, and many of their teammates bolted for the NFL knowing that they only might get drafted. It would be tough to stick around when most of the guys you've been playing alongside for the past 3 years graduated or jumped ship.

But beyond that, Collins and Rasco SHOWED THE F@#& UP in a big way in the swamp on Saturday night. If I remember correctly, just about every big hole Fournette hit was on the left side of that line against what was supposed to be a stout Florida run D. And Rasco seemed like he was making plays behind and near the line of scrimmage all night long. I didn't watch the replay, but I don't think it would be a stretch to say that these guys had the best games that they've had so far this year given the circumstances. Granted, Florida's not a great team this year but I can be proud of a win in the swamp any day with that kind of attitude and effort.
