LSU junior edge rusher BJ Ojulari was awarded the coveted No. 18 jersey last week for his leadership on the team. The tradition started after the 2003 season when quarterback Matt Mauck led the Tigers to their second national championship. He passed his number on to running back Jacob Hester, who led the Tigers to their 2007 national championship. "All the 18s put us in a group chat and they were congratulating me," Ojulari said. "It was great just for all of them to embrace me and welcome me into that brotherhood." Ojulari said that the most recent No. 18, Damone Clark, was the first to congratulate him. Both Clark and punter Avery Atkins wore the number last season. "Just being a younger guy looking up to him, especially last year, he was outstanding ," Ojulari said. Clark led the Southeastern Conference and was No. 2 nationally with 135 tackles last year. Ojulari led the defensive line as a sophomore in both tackles (55) and sacks (7) last year. - Baton Rouge Advocate

When asked this week whether or not he would continue the No. 18 jersey tradition, Brian Kelly teased an announcement. "We're going to award it to a deserving player," Kelly said. "We're just not going to do that today. But it's coming. Stay tuned." The reveal came Saturday after practice. LSU gave the number, which goes to a high-character leader on the team, to junior edge rusher BJ Ojulari. Ojulari, a preseason All-Southeastern Conference selection, represented the LSU at SEC media days and is expect ed to have a productive season.Last year, Ojulari made 55 tackles and 11½ tackles for loss while leading the team with seven sacks. He'll play more out of a two-point stance in new defensive coordinator Matt House's scheme, but he will still prim arily rush the passer. "I appreciate all y'all," Ojulari said after receiving the jersey. "All my teammates, training staff, coaches, media personnel. Being able to wear 18 and leave my legacy at LSU is the biggest for me this season." - Baton Rouge Advo cate
