Last week, 247sports.com writer Connor Tapp did an article comparing Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson to FCS school Lamar University in terms of raw offensive production. It was hilarious, and the comparison only got more ridiculous after Jackson's absurd seven-touchdown performance against Marshall last weekend.

The only thing missing was a tale of the tape graphic. We also threw in a comparison to Jackson State as well. Enjoy:

Lamar University

Jackson State 4 Games 3 4 73/126 Completions/Attempts 39/76 78/159 58.7 Percent 51.3 49.1 1,330 Pass Yards 390 781 13/3 Pass TDs/INTs 2/2 5/5 61 Rush Attempts 110 131 526 Rush Yards 479 431 8.6 Rush YPC 4.4 3.3 12 Rush TDs 4 1

Lamar Jackson has more passing yards, passing touchdowns, and rushing touchdowns than Lamar University and Jackson State combined. Wonderful.

Considering how incredible Lamar Jackson's high school highlights are, it's not too big a surprise. He's one of the top rushing quarterbacks in college football and if he continues like this, Heisman talk is warranted.
