Anybody know the last time this happened in the SEC? I've gone back as far as 2004 and it hasn't happened in that time frame. In LSU history, I've gone back to 1958 and it hasn't happened through that point. I would think it never has.

Through 5 games this year, Jarvis Landry and Odell Beckham are both on pace for over 1,300 yards receiving.



Landry: 520 yards
Beckham: 507 yards

Obviously, the 1300 yards is a long shot but if you assume a minimum of 8 games remaining, both them need to average around 61 yards to reach the 1,000 yard plateau. From a dismal passing game to accomplishing feats never seen in the LSU passing game.

Reche Caldwell and Jabar Gaffney had to have done it for Florida in 2001. Those two and Sexy Rexy were unstoppable that year.

It hasn't happened in LSU history. LSU hasn't been too successful throwing the ball throughout its history.

Mett is going next level. Will be a shame if he doesn't get a NYC invite, assuming his level of play doesn't really dip.

Ryan Swope and Mike Evans would have probably done it last year had Swope nor got knocked out early in the La Tech game.
