good lord, Trout. You’re comparing NFL results with college? Apples and oranges.

Is Saban a crappy coach because he failed with the Dolphins.

I commend Brennan on his hard work. It seems that he has physical talent as well. He just didn’t seem to be a great leader.

Uh huh...right up until it's time to show his commitment.
He was hurt before, bow he's just showing when commitment matters, he really isn't

What a dick

3 games against the worst competition on the schedule.

Contrary to popular belief, MSU and Mizzou were, statistically, a better pair of defenses than UF and Ole Miss last year. That’s the case whether you look at scoring defense, passing defense, total defense, or even 3rd down percentage. Ole Miss and Florida might have been better teams, but they did not play better defense.

Meanwhile, we had better QB production against the two better defenses. 56/94 (60%) against MSU/Mizzou, 48/87 (55%) against UF/Ole Miss. 8.24 yards/att against MSU/Mizzou, 7.76 yards/att against UF/Ole Miss. 49% passing success rate against MSU/Mizzou, 43% passing success rate against UF/Ole Miss.

We also had better overall offensive production against the two better defenses - 0.447 points per play and 5.95 yards per play against MSU/Mizzou, and 0.422 points per play and 5.62 yards per play against UF/Ole Miss.

How much did the staff ask each QB to do? Against MSU and Mizzou, 86% of our offensive production came from the passing game. Against UF and Ole Miss, only 67% of our offensive production came from the passing game.

The passing charts really tell the story of how differently the staff called games between Brennan and Johnson. Prior to this year’s MSU game (so in 5 starts), Max Johnson had not attempted a single pass >20 yards over the middle of the field. In his 3 starts last year, Brennan was 6/7 for 230 yards and 3 TD’s on passes >20 yards over the middle of the field.

TL;DR: Brennan actually started against better defenses (excluding Vandy, which was actually on par with Ole Miss defensively last year anyway) and still had more production - despite being asked to carry a much larger load. If our defense hadn’t given up over 600 ypg (against two teams that averaged 371 ypg on the year) in his two starts we would have won both games handily, and the narrative would be completely different.

I’ll cheer for him wherever he ends up, and I hope to see him some day at the next level. That’s his dream, and I hope he does great.

Either way, he’s going to do well at something. Smart, decent kid. I wish him the best of luck.

what were his third down and red zone percentages? losing to state when they turned the ball over 3 or 4 times was terrible and that mizzou game one third down was pathetic.

---

He had a worse OL and worse RBs than this year, and that's saying a lot.

Never understood the people that wanted to put those losses on Myles. State put up 640 yards of offense. Myles drove us all the way down the field to put it on the goal line against Missouri, while doing it with a season ending injury, and then you blame him when our offensive line couldn't get a 2-yard push against Missouri's third string?

An old LSU team would have shoved it down Missouri's throat from the goal line.
