JJ's breakout game?..........

I think I also heard Les Miles state Wed on his show that if an opponent loads the box again (like Miss. St.) they are going to throw much more instead of trying the run repeatedly and failing. Should be interesting.

Genius!!! That's why he gets paid the big bucks

The funny thing is, Jefferson really had a "breakout" game last week, and no one seems to have noticed it.

Because Les shut down the passing onslaught intent on jump-starting the running game which did not happen. Had they continued to push the passing envelope the Tigers win comfotably IMO.
Based on Les' admission of guilt I feel this week he'll release the hounds. Look for the "8 in the box" to get UGA in trouble early and often.
JJ- 20/28 295 yards and three t.d.'s.

I keep waiting for said breakout game...so if we post this each Friday, we'll eventually nail it.

If LSU spreads them out with 4-5 WR to exploit matchups(which I expect) JJ could hang a bunch on the bulldogs.

Max protect outta the I and take a couple shots against single coverage. Then try a double move or 2.

Ever notice they never answer? Answering would show how stupid their position is? They would rather operate in the nether world so they can adjust based on JJ's next performance. Gotta keep hatin' you know.

What would a "breakout game" for a SEC caliber QB be? I think most would agree a 250+ type of game with limited turnovers. Did JJ have a breakout game based on his previous performances? Yes, he did........and I dont see anyone downplaying it, but I'm not sure it would be classified as a breakout game in the broader scope of national or conference play. No more than if JL came out and DIDNT throw a pick 6.

We throw deep and early to get them to drop back into coverage and attempt to revive the running game.

It was kind of poo-poo-ed because it was MSU. Also, Miles said we should have thrown for 350 in retrospect. So that's on the coaches more than JJ. However, I don't think it's possible to really have a breakout game against State. To me, "breakout" implies nationally, so I think Georgia Tech was closer than any of the games this year. Nobody was watching last week. But everybody will be tuning in Saturday. Let's see if he can begin building his legacy.





btw, part of me wanted MSU to score at the end of the game last week. I wanted to see JJ lead the team down the field to win the game. I think he would have.
