At some point, it the ball touches your hand, big time players make the catch most of the time.
The throw to Stove was incredible. Would have been a TD and a great play.
Who can make a great play?
Where is Cam Martin?
LSU blitzed middle all day. No routes to voided middle. I am not an expert, but most teams teach WR to run to space and QBs to throw to where blitzed Came from.

Stidham was told where to throw the ball once we jumped up 20-0.
Something not to be overlooked is LSU’s talent. They are still a program loaded with NFL-caliber players. Their DBs were outmatchinf our receivers making it difficult to get separation for easy catches. You can neutralize their athleticism with creative play calling and a good route scheme.
It’s the same type of issue we saw against Clemson. Clemson bull-blitzed the line of scrimmage and pressures Stidham all night. We did nothing to counter it. No draws, quick passes, or screen plays. Just let them do their thing hoping they’d stop or hoping we’d get a lucky bounce.
LSU gobbled up our receivers and double covered the deep ball. So we ran up the middle on 1st and 2nd down and then threw it deep on 3rd despite it being obvious that plan was not going to work.
I can’t teach college athletes how to play football or design effective offensive schemes, but even as a lowly amateur, I could see how our 2nd half game plan was foolhardy from the start and ineffective after a few drives. A coach being paid $5,000,000 a year should know a lot more than me when it comes to the easiest observations about a football game.

Yeah wr effort in the second half not good, but the play calling was atrocious. Ed O said himself they never changed their scheme, they kept blitzing and Auburn Offense in typical Gus style never adjusted...at all.
They played man with a deep safety and blitzed everyone else, their corners outplayed our wrs but we should have been running more plays to have open WRs and RBs to force the safety up and LBs from blitzing.
Pathetic play calling by auburn in the 2nd half.
LSU played great though, but that's never an excuse to drop a 20 point lead.

To much is being made of the intermediate routes, etc...they are in this offense now. JS doesn't see them or doesn't like to throw to them.
