Unpopular opinion but how bout #22

Burnt toast all night but in his defense he was facing a very good receiver. Coleman to me is a bigger Jamar Chase and with Travis he will be a top draft pick. Coleman with Daniels as his Qb not so much.

You can see why the there was chatter coming out of fall camp.

It’s going to be a problem all year.

Oh yea I agree 100%. But man he was in reach on just about every big catch #4 made for them. #4 was just better. As were they pretty much across the board. But sheesh I think that’s pretty much expected when they have such a veteran team. I mean have y’all looked at their depth chart? Sooooo many juniors/seniors/RS seniors and what not

Never understand how guys at this level can't turn and look for the ball.

Yeah how bout him he got burnt all night. Moral victories i guess is where we are at now. So close . I remember back in the day when LSU had talent at the DB position that could match up to the Julio jones and other teams star receivers but now we lining up guys that would have never sniffed the field a few years back. So frustrating to watch DBU now become DBwho. Can only hope the DB's get better but when you see Sage Ryan starting at corner who is a safety it does not look good.

The second quarter TD was a 50/50 ball caught over Major Burns

That wasn’t a 50/50 ball. Burns had no chance to catch it. Maybe it was 50/50 complete/incomplete. Burns did a nice job trying to defend it.

Our DB’s looked like dwarfs out there. Smurf’s covering nfl receivers.

In my opinion LSU DB's were the difference in the game. Couldnt cover combined with poor takling.

Why would that not be a 50/50 ball. Burns played off of him, attached himself to Coleman in the end zone, Travis throw it where both players had an opportunity to come down with it. Coleman high pointed the ball and came down with it. The only point I was making relative to the thread was this play was not against Chestnut

Burns got one hand into the vicinity of the ball that the receiver easily had two hands on. That is not 50/50. That is a beautifully thrown ball that gives your receiver a good shot at it, and if it’s not caught it will almost certainly be incomplete. A reception on that play requires a good play by the receiver; an interception on that play requires a fabulous play by the defender. That’s why it’s not 50/50.
