When 4-star 2019 WR George Pickens is lined up across from you, you’re going to need some help covering him.
However, even double-teaming the Auburn commit sometimes isn’t enough, as Pinson Valley discovered on Saturday afternoon.
As you can see in the video below, Pickens gets behind a pair of Pinson Valley defenders to make a great catch in the end zone for Hoover’s opening score:

According to the 247Sports composite, Pickens is the No. 7 receiver in the class of 2019 and the No. 3 overall recruit from the state of Alabama. He has been committed to Auburn since July 21, 2017.
Pickens has all the makings of a star receiver, and he’ll likely continue to put up big numbers for Hoover.
