Got a little excited because I thought we were gonna talk about the game in this thread.
Anyway, I agree this is the best secondary that we’ve seen this season. On the other side of that coin, this is far and away the best passing attack that LSU has seen this season. I think some of you maybe haven’t watched Tua throw the ball that much, because he doesn’t need wide open receivers. He just drops it into the bucket. Good coverage doesn’t really matter when a quarterback is capable of that.
Despite the talent that Ole Miss possesses at WR in Brown and Lodge, this is a completely different animal that Alabama is bringing. We’ve got 3 track guys and Jerry Jeudy. An elite tight end, backs that catch the ball well...but most importantly we have an extremely accurate quarterback. Accuracy is the enemy of good coverage.

Yeah, I see this mentioned a lot. "Those WR's won't be wide open against us!"
Firstly, have LSU fans not really watched him? It's his passes to covered receivers that have gotten him so much attention.
Secondly, the WR's are all very good. At least one of them is open at some point on every play. And Tua THROWS them open.
