re: Leavitt can't read defenses, throw accurately, or go through his progressions.

The reality is the first game was fools gold because of how awful Clemson is on offense. Anyone with a brain knew it was going to take time for this offense to gel. Green being out is going to affect that timeline though.
Yea even in game one we weren't just great on offense. The defense was just so good we wore Clemson down. We need our QB to play better. Luckily we have the best HC/OC combo in the country for coaching QBs.

Damn I thought we were getting an upgrade from Nuss. At least Leavit can run..

but it's come with turnover trouble — 4+ interceptions in three games.
One small positive from the OM game- Leavitt wasn’t sticking the ball in harms way a lot. The INT was on a throw that had to be made because of the situation. And he made the right read as Harris has a step. He just blew the mechanics and hit the DL right in the facemask.
At least 2 of his picks so far have been more about accuracy and mechanics than his reads. That has to be biggest emphasis with getting improvement from him this season.
Hopefully he continues to take better care of the ball. We can’t afford turnovers.

Without the flashes they showed though so that's not good!

Why did he miss practice last week?
Posted on 9/21/26 at 11:17 am to America250
BUT, he does throw quite accurately into D-Lineman hands and helmets

The O line needs to play a lot better. They were physically dominated. The QB play will improve when the O line plays better.

He is better than Nuss ,he’s not a statue back there.His and the teams problem is the OL and receivers,they aren’t helping him out.Sam is running for his life out there.

Let’s reserve judgement until O-line play improves.

You fruitcakes will say cliches like this without knowing what his progressions are or if he even has them on most plays
Stfu and just say you’re unhappy with Saturday’s results

It is the O Line.

Reminds me of Burrow first 3/4's of his first year and Daniels his entire first year.
To me there is no comparison of Sam to those 2. Statistically you can compare but reading defenses (Burrow) accuracy Daniels. At the moment is does neither.

He’s actually damn good. Had two dropped touchdowns and the O line was bullied all night. Kiffin hit the nail on the head when he said we need to play better around him. Levitt missed practice and was off on a few throws but he gave us a chance to win that game. He’s already 10x the player Nuss is and that was his first SEC game ever in the most hostile environment possible. Cut him a little slack

He needs to slow it down and let the game come to him!.

When he isn't getting time in the pocket he has to learn to make his pre-snap reads and get the ball out quick. When the camera is on him as the teams are getting lined up, he is not doing a lot of looking around at the defenses. He glances a bit but then stares at the line to till he snaps. Maybe he is looking around at the defense immediately before the snap but it seems he is not doing a lot of pre-snap reads to figure out where to go.

Yep but LSU will pay him a lifetime of $ to suck this entire season then even more next year in hopes that his light bulb goes off.

Try doing all this with Bordelon getting ragged doll.

I don't think he has time to go through progressions
