Clemson. Almost identical except their number 1 is better than y'all's #1.

I would take Clemson and USC over Alabama in terms if wide receivers for sure.

Hopkins and Brown will not be back next year. I'll say Watkins and Cooper are a wash. I think Watkins is faster but Cooper has better body control and he appears to be more mature mentally. Bryant and Humphries are the next best receivers returning after Watkins. I put those two where Christian Jones is in terms of production, though I think Bryant might turn out to be a very good one. Still his potential is right there with Marvin Shinn.


That still leaves Kenny Bell and Norwood who both have better numbers than Watkins and Humphries. That also still leaves DeAndrew White a player whom Clemson doesn't have to match in terms of rating and starting potential

That also still leaves guys who were rated very highly out high school in Robert Foster and Chris Black who also Clemson cannot match.

Then you add the fact that Alabama faced tougher defenses and they passed the ball less. Dude it's not even close.

While Watkins and Cooper are comparable, they have a significant drop off in talent when compared to Alabama's remaining wide receivers.

Vanderbilt has a better duo of wide receivers than Clemson and Washington both.
