I know it was Grambling and I know it was late in the game, but Whit Weeks looked quick, decisive and strong for a freshman LB. Looking forward to watching this young man grow into his position.

Going to be a good one. Georgia tried to snag him they were high on him as well.

I honestly thought his brother looked good when he got in. They were gashing us on shot gun run plays but once he got in that seemed to get under control.

He came in with a lot of praise and expectation. Not a knock on West but Whit is expected to be the better one

Something about the #40 I think.

I don't get Kelly's reluctance to play freshman

I get how he wanted to rely on seniority to try to beat FSU but his unwillingness to put in fresh faces against Grambling once we got up two scores was strange. Quency Wiggins should’ve been on the field in the 2nd quarter

Nah, our defensive starters needed all the reps they could get

Yikes! Just had a flashback . Great tackler just seemed to be 15 yards or more down the field.

The brothers Weeks were in on the opening kickoff and opened a lane that was quickly closed after Sage Ryan got abused and tripped Kaleb Jackson.

I don’t get how you can not get it. Freshmen don’t know where to stand, where to run, who to cover and so forth. They can’t be put into important games until they have that stuff figured out.

Heard
Jackson
Weems
Toviano
Shelton
Pimpton
Womack
Stamps

All freshman with stats posted. Most have shown flashes but also reasons why they arent playing a ton more.

I think Weems, Toviano and Womack have earned more time in the little I saw of them.

Weeks and Womack need more playing time. I saw the note that Womack had 4 tackles (2 solo) in only 8 snaps. That's the kind of production I like to see.

Weeks, Womack, Toviano, and (maybe) Stamps need to see as much live game action as LSU can afford right now. LSU is going to absolutely need their talent down the stretch. Especially Weeks and Toviano.

LSU's starters at DE/Jack need to start showing up or they'll be watching the game from the sideline. I've not been impressed with Ovie or Savion Jones so far.
