Lamar Jackson is the darling of college football this year and the talk of all pundits, fans and critics for his outstanding play. Yet there remains one person who is not impressed by Jackson this year … himself.
A week after scoring five touchdowns against Syracuse and grading that performance a “C”, Jackson accounted for five touchdowns (again!) in Louisville’s convincing win over Florida State.
