I'm not really getting it. I'd say he's actually been pretty damn good for a true freshman. He's played two of the best defenses in the country on the road. Take away the stats from those two games and here's what he's done over the other five:

84-142 (59%) for 1,156 yards with 10 TDs, 2 INTs, and 7 sacks. 200 yards rushing and another 4 TDs.

Not too damn shabby if you ask me. Isn't it possible that UF and LSU just made Nix look terrible?

ETA: Nix is not good right now

I think sucks might be taking it too far. He's not great though.

Every defense he has played with a pulse he is completing less than 50 percent. He will eventually be good but he is not an accurate quarterback and makes dumb decisions.

You can tell he is going to be a very good quarterback with more experience. It’s extremely difficult to come into Tiger Stadium as a true freshman be effective.

I think he will probably be pretty good at some point. He just isn't ready to go into a florida or LSU and leave with a win.

Nix may be great, or even a star, in this league one day.

He's not even good right now though.

He made some horrible throws.

He also made some pretty good throws.

He also made some good decisions

He played like a talented true freshmen.

Talented but still getting used to the speed of the game at college level.

I was impressed with his speed running backward to cover a ball snapped over his head.

AND THEY HAVE NONE, BECAUSE THEY HAVEN'T PLAYED ANYONE.

Nix plays for Auburn, we already beat them. we can come back and talk about him next season.

Pretty much all I was trying to say. After the game, all I heard was how terrible he is. I was just trying to provide some context that he's really only performed poorly against some really stout defenses (Oregon, UF, LSU). Otherwise, he's performed pretty well for a true freshman.

Tries to give LSU's defense a compliment. Gets downvoted. I love this place.

Ya'll are right. LSU's defense had nothing to do with it. Nix just sucks that badly

He was way off target on more than half his passes

The guy was playing HS football this time last year and now he's going up against the best teams in CFB. He doesn't suck, and he's going to be a problem for LSU down the line.
