Week 13 comparison: WV's Stedman Bailey vs Syracuse's Alec Lemon



Alec Lemon has put up HUGE numbers in the last two weeks; in those weeks combined Lemon had 19 catches for 336 yards and 3 touchdowns. In week 13 he goes up against Cincinnati whom which gives up the most passing yards in the Big East, and thus Lemon should have a solid week. One extra point though: Lemon has been inconsistent outside of the last two weeks putting up games like 23, 29, 32, 54, and 18 yards in the games prior. On the other hand, Stedman Bailey has been Mr. Consistency all season going for 100 yards plus in 7 out of 10 games. Bailey has 14 catches for 222 yards and 3 touchdowns in the last two weeks, and goes up against the #3 pass defense in the Big East, Pittsburgh, in week 13. So, Bailey has the tougher matchup this week, and that is why some other experts have Lemon MUCH higher in WR rankings this week than Bailey. But I'll take the guy who does his job week in and week out named Stedman.
