Alshon Jeffery is one of the best wideouts in college football. However, he’s had a quiet season due to some quarterback turmoil in South Carolina. Jeffery has made his presence felt during the Outback Bowl though. Jeffery has over 100 yards at half and has one amazing touchdown catch.
Connor Shaw threw a prayer up right before half and Jeffery answered it. He skied up for an amazing catch and managed to dive into the end zone to put the Gamecocks up 16-13 over Nebraska at half.
Jeffery will be a first round pick in the 2012 NFL Draft. The only question is whether he or Justin Blackmon will be the first wideout taken.

Alshon Jeffery shows up to answer Gamecocks’ Hail Mary prayer, then gets tossed

Nebraska’s loss was nothing less than ugly today. There is no way around it. A game in which Nebraska easily could have, and perhaps should have, won was instead turned into an ugly loss.
How ugly was it? Nebraska’s star cornerback, Alfonzo Dennard, was ejected from the game for fighting with Alshon Jeffery.
So does this problem start right at the top with Bo Pelini?...
