How a meaningless incomplete pass against Syracuse showed LSU's confidence in its receivers is growing

For the LSU wide receivers, the most telling offensive play of last weekend's game against Syracuse was an incomplete pass that ultimately had no effect whatsoever on the result of the game.

With about 6:35 to play in the first quarter, receivers Drake Davis and Russell Gage stacked out wide to the left of quarterback Danny Etling while Derrick Dillon went to the opposite side and DJ Chark was set in motion before joining Dillon out right.

The play was a bust as the Orange defensive end beat left tackle KJ Malone, forcing Etling to flee the pocket.
