I didnt say he'd be defacto great just because he made those throws but he's got potential. There are far more examples of RSF playing badly than those playing anything close to good.

Compare him for example to Hatch's play. Hatch just doesn't have the tools to be much better than he already is. He can improve decision making but he is just limited by arm strength and isn't far from his plateau. JL is far from his plateau and can get there with time. It's unreasonable to expect consistent play from a 19 year old kid against mostly 21 and 22 year olds.

Yeah, those 50 points to the opposition had no outcome on the game.

a lot of whether an INT will actually get returned for a TD is just plain random

No, he's throwing it right into the gut of a defender who is rushing across or towards the field in the direction of their own goal line, while the LSU team is mostly going the opposite way. The LSU team can't turn on a dime and switch directions, so the defender has a clear path and a full head of steam in the direction of his goaline, resulting in the TD.
