Team MVP: Lamar Jackson

Was there really any doubt in your mind that this award would go to anyone other than Lamar Jackson?

He was Louisville’s best player, the ACC’s best player, and the Nation’s best player. With that being said, this kid is 100 percent our choice for team MVP.

Lamar Jackson has been able to achieve so many unbelievable things in his sophomore season under Bobby Petrino.

He has rushed for 1,538 yards, while also running for 21 touchdowns. If that wasn’t impressive enough for you, Jackson also threw for 30 touchdowns as well.

Louisville football fans should be thanking their lucky stars that he has at least one more season with the Cardinals.
