Get your heads around the fact that Jones never said this.

Jones' excitement for his return also centers around some anticipated battles with LSU cornerback Patrick Peterson, who's generating some Heisman Trophy chatter with his lockdown defense and special teams prowess.

"I am like a kid at a candy store," offered Jones, who had 6 catches for 86 yards in the opener against UT Martin. "I watched film on them for two hours (Monday) because I was so eager. I am so ready for No. 7 (Peterson). I am ready for him. I watched him for a couple of hours (Monday).

"To be honest with you, I think a lot of people fear him because he is so big. He's 6-2, 220. He's a pretty good athlete. He has his weakness, too and I am going to expose them. I can't wait to show LSU fans that he's not Superman. I am going to give him my all and it's going to be a battle come Saturday."
