re: 6-2 and ranked 111 out of 134 in rushing

At least Kelly is consistent. Every year he is here we can count on at least one phase of our team to be ranked in the 100s.

It seems as soon as one phase of the game is corrected, another phase goes to shite. Is this going to be the norm with BK?

Where would we be if he didn’t turn into Max Johnson in the second half, which is well within his skill level and completely unnecessary

Stop defending Nuss. His decision making cancelled out his arm and came damn near close against Ole Miss and USCe.

These are turning into some Trouser Trout/Daniels-esque takes.

- He accounts for 74% of our total offense on the year.
- That goes up to 76% in SEC play.
- It goes up to 77% in the three games you have been criticizing.
- And in our loss to Texas A&M, he accounted for 91% of our total offense.

For reference Ole Miss has the most efficient offense in the SEC, and Jaxson Dart accounts for ~67% of their offensive production. Alabama is 2nd; Milroe accounts for ~67% of their offense. Auburn is 3rd; Thorne accounts for 51% of their offense.

Meanwhile Ewers, Milroe, Beck, Weigman, Green, Thorne, Vandagriff, Van Buren.. all have higher INT % than Nussmeier. I didn’t go through every single SEC QB but I can say this: Nussmeier is #2 in the SEC for passing yards. #3, 4, 5, and 6 all throw INTs at a higher rate.

Yes, he got rattled Saturday. Yes, he has made some bad decisions. Yes, he’s had a few rough weeks. Yes, we need him to take better care of the ball (among other things). But the more one-dimensional the team becomes, the harder it is to win.

When you’re relying on one guy for 91% of your offensive production, that’s about as one-dimensional as it gets. For all of his faults, I don’t believe for a second that there’s another QB on this roster who would have brought us to a better record at this point in the season.
