He was consistently pressured and didn't have a clean pocket to sit in as he has much of this season.

With the pressure came 'happy feet' and repeated mistakes in a effort to get rid of the ball.

The kid is pretty good but played scared much of the night. Confidence could be broken now in himself and coaching on both sides of the ball.

Saban will have a field day with him after seeing this game. Of course he probably would have already but this assures it.

Rest of the season could get ugly.

He can't deal with any pressure? Seriously?
He won't going pro if so.

His problem was Miles didn't let him get in shotgun til the 2nd half. Nearly every throw in the first half was out of PA, and they just blitzed before he could even turn around

Laughable excuse. He's got no foot work, no presence, and zero speed.

Shotgun just gives him longer to throw a pic.

Really??! You mean, even GOOD QBs (like Mett, like Peyton Manning) will make mistakes if pressured, hit, harassed occasionally? WOW, what a concept, HUH?! Wow, what a game, HUH!!??

So what happens if a below avg QB, who will graduate from Ol Miss, get a job selling insurance, and play intramural flag football in a rec league, gets pressured? You saw it when he played Alabama. The guy takes 5 seconds to wind up w/ his goofy throwing motion, yet Chavis lets him sit in the pocket, gain confidence, and post All-American stats. Way to go Chief. How about returning some of that $1 mil large back to the University coffers??

At the first sack, he totally panics & digresses as he did last year on several occasions. He will not be much of a QB in the pro's as u have to stay cool & forget the last play. Mett simply does not have the intellect! Also give Jennings some playing time so we wont start the next season in a JJ situation!

This is called projection, where you see your own emotions in someone else. Mett isn't afraid. You are.

He looked pretty rattled last night. No disputing that.

His problem was that he threw four terrible passes, three of which were intercepted and one of which should have been.

That and he tries to force throws into receivers covered like a blanket. Throw it away or thow it to another option.

Even if pressured, it doesn't mean you have to go deep into triple coverage. That's mainly where we lost the game, greed.

We allowed Ole Miss to dictate to our defense because they played ahead all game so their full playbook was open.

Each of the games we lost over the last few years almost seem to unfold the same way in the 4th quarter. Even worse, the last drives.
