Ricardo Louis – Auburn Wide Receiver

Bulldog fans will remember the name of Ricardo Louis all too well. He’s the guy who caught the tipped pass at the end of the 2013 game that sent the Bulldogs away with a huge gut punch.

Louis is doing a lot more than just catching miracle passes this year, he’s become one of Auburn’s best deep threats and one of Nick Marshall’s favorite targets. He’s also been utilized more and more in the Auburn read-option running attack, having rushed 14 times for 175 yards and one touchdown this season.

The Georgia linebackers are going to have to keep a close eye on Louis as the plays develop, as he could very well be used in a misdirection play that might break for big yards if he’s not kept from hitting the edge with his speed.

Louis will be a key assignment for Jeremy Pruitt’s defense.
