Freddie Milons...I'll never forget his wildcat TD run against Florida in the 99 SEC title game.

Dude you look like a fool

You said the SEC single season leader in receiving yards per game, and the second all time leader in yards per game in a career isn't on someone's level

Cooper is a great receiver both college and NFL. But he wasn't as good as Josh Reed was in college. He literally was the man no one could cover his last year.

For comparison:

Amari Cooper vs LSU
2012 0 catches for 0 yds, 0 TDs (Box score showed participation. He had 1000 yds that year but 0 vs LSU, did he get hurt?)
2013 3 catches for 46 yds, 0 TDs
2014 8 catches for 83 yds, 1 TDs

Josh Reed vs Bama
1999 2 catches for 33 yds, 0 TDs
2000 8 catches for 129 yds, 2 TDs
2001 19 catches for 293 yds, 1 TDs

He's on his level but Cooper clearly had a better career. Cooper's final season was glorious...he was unguardable.

Did you just compare 3 career games to make a point?

Yes I did. The other Bama guy said Cooper (not Reed) was the guy no one could cover. He absolutely was covered by LSU in 2 of those 3 games I used as a comparison. The last game he had a good game but nothing spectacular. Other guy proved wrong, Cooper was coverable.

quote:

Reed wasn't on Cooper's level despite his heroic performance against an abysmal Alabama secondary

Wasn't on Cooper's level? I will list his yardage by game here. Note that Reed had more yards than Cooper with only 12 games. Cooper played 14.

Tulane 135, Utah St 124, Tenn 125, Fla 123, Ken 160, Miss St 146, Ole Miss 85, Alabama 293, M. Tenn 120, Arkie 183, Auburn 186, Tenn (SECCG) 60 for a total of 1,740. Note that he was held under 100 yds only twice. One of those, the SECCG, his QB, Rohan Davey got hurt. Also note he averaged more yardage against SEC teams than he did against the cupcakes. Cooper was held under 100 yds in 7 of 14 of his games including a low of 22 yds vs Arkie.

Reed's bowl totals are not included in his 1,740 yards. But so you know, in the Sugar Bowl, against a team sporting 2 projected 1st round CBs, he had 239 more yards, so his real totals would be 1,979 yards in 13 games vs 1,727 in 14 games for Cooper.

Again, as I said earlier, Josh Reed, in his last year was uncoverable. Cooper was great at Bama, but not uncoverable like Reed was. Sorry but that is a fact.

Cooper and Reed were equally as dominant and unguardable in college

Wasn't he the one that had some long TD run that the Jeff-Pilot intro always played?

Found it.
