probably the least hyped reciever out of the rotation but wow he was huge. reminded me of Rueben Randle vs Bama 2010. totally changed the game and happy for the Louisiana man!!

He has some wheels. I thought the DB had an angle on him.

Me too. I’ve hated on him thru 2 games. That was a huge play

He was definitely one of the most targeted. Some passes were a bit off. He made it count tho with that 4.3 speed for the TD. I can see why they run the RPO with him a lot.

Was a great catch, especially with the defensive guy looking like he was going to disrupt the pass in front of him which could have messed him up.

The dB 1000% had the angle. Took him to the sideline and still stayed inbounds for the td. They should have shown the sky angle, it was impressive from the one they showed.

That catch and run was a game-changer and bodes well for LSU.

Wasn't some deep sideline toss-up that he came down with, but rather a perfectly placed throw on a crossing route.

Those are the kinds of passes that have been mostly non-existent in LSUs offense for quite some time. Dillon showed just how dangerous they can be when well-executed.

One of the DBs gave up chasing.. you can tell he was slowing down after Dillon hit that 2nd gear.

I would like to see as the season progresses lsu move Chase to the slot mixed in with some Dillon in spots. Have been underwhelmed with Giles in the slot.

Had the pleasure of watching him play in HS. He and my son were friends. And I played HS football with his (now late) father. Derrick is a great kid. Humble and and nice as they come and hard working. I wish him the very best. Hope he gets plenty more opportunities this year, I'm certain he'll make the most of them.

Randle a tall possession receiver who was overhyped versus Dillon who is the opposite of all these things... Yeah I can see the resemblance

Big Time Play. I admit. Was dogging him for most of the game. He and Burrow pulled it out. He is the lone speed in the WR group. Which amazes me. That’s the one thing I noticed was the lack of speed. Which favors Sullivan and Dee with their size. Was surprised we didn’t see more of #1 today. Shocked really.

Haha, no kidding. Reminds me of Jared Mitchell out there. Great athlete trying to learn the position. Ridiculous speed and agility, but has to get better at route running and catching.

He was talking about Randle’s catch against Alabama that flipped the game around

Why not give him some chances in the WildCat?

We should. He can actually sling it too.
