12 passes for 79 yards?
i'm sorry it was 13 passes. versus UNC aside from one pass to Randle for 51 yards and one pass to Jospeh for 21 yards, he completed 13 more passes for 79 yards. the one 51 yard completion may have been the best throw he's ever made in an LSU uniform. he was asked to throw downfield more times in this game, but again after his first read wasn't open he just check down to the dump off guy. he never scanned the field and found secondary WR who ran intermediate routes.

If you are correct, how did Jefferson not do that against State? How many punts or turnovers did LSU have? In any event, the role of the QB is to perform as the QB is asked to perform. Jefferson did that well.
when you're average starting field position is the opponents 46 yard line, i hope you don't have to punt much. and if you can move the ball 10 yards, you are in FG range. let's talk about the failed opportunnities to punch the ball in the end zone in plus field position instead of how many punts LSU had.

How many opportunities did Jefferson have to throw? Sixteen. He completed over 60% of his passes. More importantly, Jefferson put his team in scoring position on every possession except for one.
once again the Defense and Special Teams put the Tigers in position to score. Jefferson did lead two TD drives, one of which he only had to go 28 yards and the running game did all the work.
quote:
Outside of the one drop that Shepard had on a deep throw, give me another example of when Jefferson was asked to throw the ball downfield.
there were a few times he looked to throw downfield, but after his #1 wasn't open he checked down, instead of going through his progressions and finding another Wr on an intermediate route.
quote:
Look at the plays Jefferson was asked to execute and consider how he executed them. He did a great job
if you call constantly checking down after your number #1 option isn't open instead of scanning the field for other options, doing a great job, then you obviously accept mediocrity.
quote:
So you're saying that on an option, he read the defense and took advantage of its breakdown. Isn't that what he is supposed to do on an option?
you got me there. guess i was just surprised that after 2 years, he finally read the option correctly.
quote:
Except that he has won in the SEC throwing for less than 100 yards. Twice. And he hasn't lost yet.
against the 2 worst SEC teams he'll play this year. does anyone not think that in games versus Florida, Tennesse, Alabama, Aurburn and Arkansas that an output like that will not win us those games.

The same WVU that got taken to OT by Marshall? The same WVU team that gave up a 100 yard rushing game to a Marshall player?
they still have a better Defense than MSU, UNC and Vandy
