Rico Scott

But to your point, they've been exactly what this offense needs for the most part.

What about Rico Scott, especially – as we alluded to with the run game, but for different reasons there between September and October.

But boy, these last two games, especially for Rico, 10 catches, 210 yards, most of that, a lot of that coming in a career performance against Texas A&M last week.

I remember opining before the season started.

But in terms of over-performing, I'm not sure I saw this level of production coming.

I just want Rico to come off the bench and help Ryan Lottie in the offense as an outside blocker because it's such a critical need.

Well, he did supply that, but then in addition to it, a huge game, Rico Scott legacy game against Texas A&M with Ryan out, and he needed to step up as a playmaker, and boy, did he.

man, he's become a really good, well-rounded SEC receiver.

They have... to give Keelan an option.

Because right now, if you're asking a 19-year-old quarterback in that environment to drop back 35, 40 times a game with his number one receiver not being at 100%, with Rico Scott essentially carrying the lion's share of the reps and the receivers, they're just going to be in trouble, especially the way the LSU defense has played this year.

And I know statistically, they're one of the top in the entire conference.

Again, I would probably take...

I think they've got to have Ray Sandel Gotti back at center because the one thing you saw against Texas A&M and even against Tennessee, I think they had some guys open at times.

It was just they couldn't get the football to them.

Rico Scott's ready, it appears, to take it to another level.

And they kind of know what they've got now with that mix without Ryan Coleman-Williams.

But you look at Alabama, I mean, they got two or three.

Rico Scott.

Rico that you need to be afraid of.

So I'm really interested in how healthy is Coleman.

He can be really dangerous.

And I think now with the emergence of Rico Scott in this last game, you know, something you've been waiting for.

156, I think it was, receiving.

He's really becoming a guy that's very, very solid.

We're asking if Cedarian Morgan, as a true freshman, can have an impact.

I want to take a moment to highlight Rico Scott, not just because he's done all the right things from a blocking standpoint.

I want to know, as a true pass catcher, from a former receiver's perspective – What is he doing right on the field that's earned him so much playing time and goodwill on this offense?

So he consistently is always hustling in every facet.

When they draw plays for him in the red zone, he's unsure of himself.

He's not able to make himself a big target.

Why would you not just go with the younger guys? If you have a Rico Scott that's performing at the level he's performing at and you put in some other young guy that's a literal, at least a threat in some in some way, I think Sedarian is that threat.

I think Noah Rogers can be that threat at least to soften things up, because right now everyone's asking where's Lottie.

They've done excellent.

Shout out to Rico Scott for last week.

I didn't get to really say anything about Texas A&M, but Rico Scott stepped up, did his thing, did amazing.

I'd like to see Noah Washington get some reps. I'd like to see AK Deere get a couple plays out there.

But as long as we can just stay healthy, get back to our prime time shape, we'll be all right.

EJ had five.

And Rico Scott had two.

So you said four,

five, and nine from the backs, right? So that would be 18 total.

Now, you know how that is, right? So my other thing is, Ryan Coleman-Williams being out hurts the run game, in my opinion, as well.

Because guess what? You think the opponent respects Derrick Meadows running deep or 5'9", Lottie Brooks going against a tall corner? Because Lottie is best in the slot, putting the ball in his hand and letting it work.

But in my opinion, the run game took off a little bit once Rico Scott stepped up.

And I think that can help as well.

I think it's been good.

And again, a lot of the explosive plays, although they didn't do a great job with Rico Scott.

I need to talk to Mike about that.

He had too many of those plays just over the middle.
