What delusion? What exactly has Jennings done this year since Diarse went beast mode in the Wisconsin game?

Look, the fact is that neither one can succeed in LSU offensive approach. Sat. was the first time to really see what Harris could do. Not against bad competition, not in the final 3 minutes of a blowout, but from snap one of a SEC game. He just flat wasn't on target with any of his passes other than the one to Dupree (which Dupree made a nice play by coming back and going up for a ball that was a bit under thrown).

No one is saying that Jennings has set the world on fire, but I saw three passes at least that were very well thrown: 1) The seam route to Diarse for a big gain; 2) The post to Dupree that would have been a TD without PI by Auburn: 3) The deep post to Dural that set up LSU in the redzone.

I agree 100% that his completion % isn't good. But I like to look a bit deeper than the numbers. He's throwing deep ball after deep ball. It's tough to complete those. Mettenberger had a garbage completion % is first year as a starter because that's all LSU threw then. It's amazing how much more accurate a passer he became when LSU started attacking the intermediate-middle of the field a bit more in 2013
