Minnesota Vikings superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson played for arguably the best team in college football history, and he sees significant similarities in his present team.

LSU went 15–0 in 2019 and won a national title amid a dominating 48.4 points per game and 21.9 points allowed per contest. Fresh off a 27–24 comeback win over the Seattle Seahawks (8–7), the Vikings (13–2) are gearing up for a shot at the No. 1 seed in the NFC playoffs and possible Super Bowl run.
