3. Wide Receiver, Malachi Dupre

Dupre ended the 2016 season as the leading receiver for the LSU Tigers’ offense. However, it’s not like he ran away with it, as he only has about 30 more yards more than the guy right beneath him. It’s going to be very important for Louisville’s secondary to be prepared for his size and ability to go get the football.

Dupre only had one game this year where he had at least 100 receiving yards. It was also the game where had caught two of his three total touchdowns this season as well. You will be pleased to know that the Tigers played against Southern Mississippi that afternoon.

LSU tends to spread the ball around to many different guys, but they love to stick to their ground game.

However, at 6-foot-4, Dupre will have many mismatches that he can take advantage of in the Citrus Bowl.
