There was one throw in the third quarter where he hit Dural in stride across the middle for a big gain.


I'm pretty sure he was hit as he threw, as well, if it is the same pass I'm thinking about.

What you noted was probably this:
quote:

1st and 10 at LSU 48 Anthony Jennings pass complete to Travin Dural for 44 yds to the Wisc 8 for a 1ST down (ESPN Box Scores/third quarter)

He was hit as he threw, but instead of flinching and throwing off his back leg, he stepped into the throw for the completion and took the hit like a boss man.

He had a spotty first half with less than 40% completion but was something like 3 of 5 including the pass you referenced in the second. He had a couple of drops by receivers and a couple of questionable interference no-calls but despite those issues he came through looking confident and like a very able passer. He is going to be something special before it's all over. 1-0 as a reliever and 2-0 as a starter looks a lot like a winner.
