You are misinterpreting. I'm actually pointing out that HE (He being Mayhawman) shouldn't use the games for comparison.

Secondly, I'm providing context & you've misinterpreted there. Jarrett Lee didn't "only have to play one half."

Jarrett Lee got lit up on a blitz through the A-Gap that Spencer Ware completely whiffed on. He got hit & hurt his foot/ankle. That was on the final drive of the half, & he was clearly hobbled on the rest of it. I think we still scored.

The 2nd half against NSU, Mett played the entire way.

I think its pretty safe to say that Lee would've gotten at least the rest of the 3rd quarter to work, simply because he needed it (it was his 2nd start, and we were going on a short-week up to Starkville after that). Which means his performance could easily have been construed to have been even better (he finished 8-10 with 2 TD's in one half of work, I believe).

But that didn't happen. You're confused that I'm thinking it happened due to a blowout. His removal from the game completely changed that 2nd half. Even though it wasn't in doubt, our stats were skewed because you know Mett was getting reps & work for the future. Had Lee stayed in, we probably would've done better. But no way to know, which makes the comparison against WKU very weak, in my view, when you are looking at the raw stats up against each other from both games.

So when comparing the total stats from WKU against NSU, its not an apples & oranges discussion. Yes, 2 QB's played in each, but for completely different reasons, and not because of a blowout in the case of the former, which was unlike the case of the latter.
