Makes better decisions, stronger arm.
Name where Tua is better than Trevor
Lawrence doesn't make better decisions. I'm not sure why you are acting like that game was in a vacuum and they played on equal terms. They didn't. And having a strong arm doesn't mean a ton - ever heard of Jamarcus Russell?
Lawrence had a much better game than Tua. That much is for sure. But it's not like they are in a free throw contest, it's a team sport.
As for Tua:
1. More accurate
2. Better/Quicker Release
3. More agile, is able to maintain his balance like a weeble wobble.
4. Better scrambler
5. Able to throw receivers open
6. Looks off defenders
7. More effecient, aka doesn't make mistakes(but he dropped off at the end of the season with all the injuries).
So basically Lawrence is taller and probably able to throw the ball harder, which actually isn't something that translates all that well to the game(but doesn't hurt unless he just throws it to hard and he doesn't).
Tua's arm strength is still more than enough to make any throws. I think the main thing against him would be his height. But there are other things he needs wto work on:
I don't like the way Tua takes a sack and I think it contributes to his injuries. He needs to work on that shite. I'm not sure how well Lawrence takes a sack, I'm not sure he was sacked the entire game and certainly didn't face the pressure Tua did.
But I guess getting 5 seconds in the pocket consistently just makes Lawrence a better QB. Personally, in my experience, I've noticed just about any QB that is given 5 seconds in a pocket consistently does well.
Tua can be a little loose with the football as well, needs to work on holding it better. Couldn't really tell with Lawrence, again wasn't really pressured.
Overall I'm kind of shocked Clemson fans would even remotely consider him on the same level as Watson. Kind of insulting to Watson really.

Well since nobody will post Trever Lawerence gifs, I will.
This was his 63 yard pass on Clemson's first TD drive. I say that's some pretty busted coverage by Savion Smith(maybe Thompson), I say he has all the time in the world, and 0 pressure, and that Mac Jones can make this pass as well as the majority of college football QB's. I guess some people think this is the greatest of all time QB play?
Here's another I mentioned before. This was on the drive that ended in a FG. Once again, a clean pocket, plenty of time and a wide open Savion Smith reciever.
Here's the good pass he threw that I mentioned before that I thought someone would post. Does a nice job throwing it over the head of the Alabama defenders where only Ross can get it. Nice catch too, and nice job for the Clemson line to give him a nice pocket once again. There isn't an Alabama defender within 5 yards.
And here is the great catch by Ross. Lawrence gets a tiny bit of pressure at the end(dumbass Tosh actually brought 5), but still enough time to get it off easily. Doesn't throw a good ball, but Ross makes up for it with a highlight reel catch.
0 sacks in this game and rarely even pressured = who the hell couldn't make good decisions and the majority of those throws.
This is what good coaching(Clemson) vs bad coaching(Alabama) looks like, not the "Greatest of all time" QB.
