Good question, last years season maybe. Still waiting on a big time game changing plays by him, hopefully its coming the 2nd half of season.

Smith - 38/636/9 Jeudy- 42/538/6 JJ - 40/670/8 Chase - 30/578/8 Considering that so far LSU has played a far tougher schedule than Bama, having no Tigers at the WR spot is atrocious.

List is shite without Chase or Jefferson on it somewhere. All Jeudy does is catch quick slants.

I compared LSU receivers versus Bama's receivers since it is claimed they are the best in the nation and have 2-4 first rounders. I took their SEC rankings in catches, total yards, average and TDs, added up the total, divided by four and took the average. The lower the score the better. For instance, if a player is ranked 1st in each category, his average score would be 1, the best score possible. Chase 3.75 Jefferson 4.0 Smith 4.0 Jeudy 7.5 Marshall 8.25 Ruggs 9 Waddle 11.5

I'd like to give an honorable mention to Kristian Fulton. He takes away an entire side of the field. Stingley gets the ball thrown at him and his opportunity to shine because it's the other team's only hope. Don't get me wrong, he is incredibly talented and deserving of this honor.

Maybe the defensive scheme forces the other team to throw into single coverage...something Lil' Sting has been in 92% of the snaps.
