The Lamar Jackson show continued in a big way in No. 13 Louisville’s 62-28 win over Syracuse on Friday night.

Jackson rushed for 199 yards and four TDs and threw for 411 yards and another score before being pulled in the fourth quarter.

And although it’s only Week 2, Jackson’s Heisman campaign now has a signature highlight. In the second quarter of Friday’s win, he hurdled Syracuse cornerback Cordell Hudson before finding the end zone.

That was after he had orchestrated three TD drives in the first five minutes of the first quarter.

Through two games this season, Jackson has 13 touchdowns (7 passing, 6 rushing) and 1,015 yards (697 passing, 318 rushing). And that’s despite skipping the entire second half of the Cardinals’ Week 1 win and most of the fourth quarter in Week 2.

Incredible. Jackson’s 610 total yards Friday are an ACC record, and he became the first FBS player to pass for at least 400 yards and run for at least 175 yards.

So how do you stop this guy? Syracuse coach Dino Babers isn’t sure:

A huge test now awaits Jackson and Cardinals, who host No. 3 Florida State next week.
