No...Cooper is better at that stuff too

Cooper is averaging a first down per catch this year. Dural has him on touchdowns for now. That will change, we can bet whatever you'd like on that.

Only speaking of this year of course, because Coopers career touchdown numbers blow Durals out of the water, but y'all like to argue stupid shite so I'm humoring you.

Every catch Dural has ever made in college is a First Down or Touch Down

Dural>>>>>>Cooper

LSU fans desperately want to have something on their team they can claim is better than Bama.


Y'all really are a sad bunch.

We just were the first SEC ever to have a 3000 yd passer, 2 1000 yd WR's, and a 1000 yd rusher. We did all that without having smoke and mirrors HUNH offense. Against the top competition in the country and conference. We are the only SEC team ever to accomplish that feat.

Don't flatter yourself over your 1td WR that fell flat on his face last year.

Cooper had more yards last year when he fell flat on his face than Dural has amassed in his career.

They're both pretty damned good. Cooper currently has the better resume- but I think our guy Dural will have a pretty decent year, too.

Well he did have two guys in front of him that each had over 1000 yds. That might have something to do with it. Cooper doesn't have that excuse. He just hit that sophomore slump and never recovered all year.

2012- RS
2013- 3rd WR 2 TD's
2014- 4 TD's and expect much more. SEC secondaries outside of LSU are putrid this year.

No, its sad that bama fans cannot concede to something as small as another program having a great receiver. Its sad when it shows on the field that you arent invincible, and then in the stands when people are legitimately crying over a the loss. And finally its sad after the game when your fans send death threats to the same players you thought to be so brilliant.

Alabama is a sad place.

I never said he wasn't a great receiver. I just said it was ludicrous to consider Dural a better receiver when Amari has delivered clutch performances against better competition than Dural throughout his career.


I don't get the thinking from LSU fans after only 2 games with him and 5 catches. Against a weak B10 opponent and a cupcake.

I may get flack for this, but I think Diarse and Dupree, and Quinn for that matter are better receivers. Dural is super fast and is the best big play threat. I'd take Cooper easily.
