Four Tigers Named AP All-Americans; Team Awards Announced

Wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase, cornerback Derek Stingley and safety Grant Delpit joined Heisman Trophy winner Joe Burrow (still feels great to type) as LSU’s representatives on the Associated Press’ All-American team.

Of course, Burrow and Chase are mortal locks as the Heisman and Biletnikoff trophy winners. Delpit was a unanimous All-American choice last season, and didn’t quite play at that level this season, but name recognition has it’s benefits. Stingley’s choice was outstanding to see for the true freshman, after leading the SEC in interceptions and pass break-ups. Of course, he somehow was not the conference’s freshman of the year choice.

Jacoby Stevens probably had a gripe after an 82 tackle. 8.5 tackle-for-loss, three-interception stat line. Here’s the full AP team list.
