That is not correct. He found the 2nd or 3rd receiver multiple times against UCLA. We kept it very vanilla against AP and MTSU. I also frankly don't think he played that great last Saturday....several throws were low, and the throw that led to the interception was ill-advised and behind the receiver.

I thought the helmet to helmet pop he took on the first series took a little away from him most of the first half. He almost fumbled the very next snap. I couldn't believe there wasn't a flag on that.

We need a backup QB that will not miss a step if something happens to Paxton. With playing Paxton all the time, you lose that backup QB.

Ding-Ding.

Depends on how big the lead is. Miss State just about blew a comfortable lead by one bad snap from the back up center.

I wholeheartedly endorsed CJF's decision to stick with Lynch. This is a move that is paying dividends already. That said, we sure as heck ought to do everything we can to make sure Lynch is not sacked into the injured reserve!

Scott Scherer won some games for us.
Care to elaborate?
