Football was back in Tiger Stadium over the weekend and even though it was just a scrimmage, the excitement was palpable on Saturday afternoon as a scrimmage indicates that college football is near. But what did we learn about the LSU Tigers over the weekend?

First, true freshman running back Kaleb Jackson stole the show. The four-star recruit from Baton Rouge flashed his size, speed, and elusiveness with two touchdowns on the day: one 18-yard TD run and another screen that Jackson turned into a 75-yard touchdown pass on 2nd and 15 after a false start penalty pushed the second team offense back. Jackson had a fantastic day and took advantage of his opportunity. So how does Brian Kelly and offensive coordinator Mike Denbrock balance all eight running backs on the roster? Coach Kelly said experience would win out, but how can you ignore the day Jackson had on Saturday?

But the surprises didn't end on the offensive side of the ball; junior Sage Ryan was taking first team snaps at cornerback in the scrimmage. Ryan has traditionally played safety and nickel but he and Southeastern Louisiana transfer Zy Alexander rolled with the first team defense. Can Ryan be a viable option there? Do the depth concerns at cornerback leave defensive coordinator Matt House with any option but to be creative and play Ryan at a position with which he has very little experience?
