LSU football cornerback Derek Stingley Jr is one of the best football players in the nation.

By now, everyone knows how important cornerback Derek Stingley Jr is to LSU football‘s success.

LSU gave up over 600 passing yards in the season-opener against Mississippi State without Stingley in the lineup.

The absence of one player obviously isn’t to blame for that kind of defensive breakdown. But I think a lot of folks would agree that if Stingley had been in the lineup, the Tigers probably don’t lose to the Bulldogs.
