Ja'Marr Chase cemented his name as one of the top players in SEC history in 2019, winning the Biletnikoff Award as the nation's top receiver and becoming the first wide receiver in LSU history to earn unanimous All-America honors. In 2019, Chase led the nation in both receiving yards (1,780) and touchdowns (20), breaking the SEC mark in each of those categories: He capped his record-setting season with 221 receiving yards and two TDs in LSU's 42-25 win over Clemson in the CFP National Championship Game as the Tigers finished with a 15-0 mark. In two years at LSU, Chase caught 107 passes for 2,093 yards and 23 touchdowns.
