Zavion Thomas leapt for a ball thrown down the seam Tuesday morning as LSU worked on red zone situations. DJ Pickett, a 6-foot-5 cornerback, had tight coverage, but the 5-foot-10 wide receiver jumped over him. Thomas held onto the ball as Pickett tried to knock it out of his grasp, and they fell to the ground.

Thomas' catch was the offensive highlight of LSU's fully padded practice , an hour of which was open to the media. But once again — as has often been the case this preseason — the defense mostly won the 11-on-11 plays that were seen by reporters.

Here's a full rundown of what we saw during LSU's 11th preseason practice. The Tigers ran 18 plays in the 11-on-11 periods that took place during the open portion of practice. The next two days are closed to the media.
