Yeah, they showed him alright- by robbing him of a potential game-saving interception.
Who the ***k reviewed the play- Mal Moore??????

i need to find the clip of Patrick and Julio where their legs got mixed up and Julio fell down. as they sprinted downfield, Patrick had his hands up to make sure he didnt touch Julio the entire way. I think thats called "prancing". Patrick was essentially trotting and Julio still couldnt get away from him.

+1 The best lock-down corner in CFB.

Are there any other CB's that could lock down Green and Julio like him?

I'd like to know where pro scouts rank him?

Peterson is LSU's best corner back of this era

PP is the best CB we've had since Webster. Shut down corners like him are very rare.

PP is much better than Webster. Bigger, faster, smarter.
Webster was best in 2003, when LSU's DL was delivered a tremendous pass rush. In 2004 the DL wasn't quite as good and Webster's performance fell off. PP has performed well in spite of an ineffective pass rush.
Webster tended to take too many risks, made big plays but also got beat a lot.

PP shut Jones down.

Since when does DEMANDING COMPETENCE in the officials, become 'complaining'. If we don't complain...they don't change.

For what it's worth, a co-worker called me today (a die hard Alabama fan and alumni) and made this quote:

"Patrick Peterson is hands down the best shut down corner not only in the SEC but in ALL of college football"....

P.S.... Yes, he does agree that LSU got completely robbed on the call...

Yes there were alot of calls that could have gone either way yesterday but it was still a good game. Peterson is a beast and by far the best corner in CFB.

I don't remember Julio getting ANY catches when PP was lined up against him. PP should be 1st team all american this year. The kid is lights out!
