Hutson Mason Fun Fact

Interesting stat. I think he will be fine. We need to throw a long one or two to make the defense respect him. He'll be ok.

One good wheel route to JSW and the defenses will start playing everything honest.

quote:

---

To be fair, about half of those were WR screens and the other half were under 10 yard throws.

---

5 completions to Bennett with 12 yd average.

A 12 yarder to conley.
A 11 yarder to Michel.
9 yarder to Jeb.

You know it's pretty easy to look stuff up these days instead of making shite up and repeating stuff that you made up in your own mind.

What is the purpose of your self-deprecation? Do you think others will think you are a cool person if you say bad things about your own team? Ha Ha I'm Floyd and people like me cuz I'm not like those other fans, I say bad things about my team (even if they aren't true).

He did fine, especially without the two main downfield threats

Yeah, over hearing people rag on Hutson was maddening. No one asked him to win us the ball game but if he completes over 65% of his passes and doesn't make mistakes and throw INT's we will be in for a good year with this D and RB core. They didn't test him at all down the field, I don't know if that was more of Mitchell and JSW being out or Bobo not trusting him just yet.


Why pass at all?

70% carries Gurley
15% Chubb
15% Sony, KM
???
Profit

I'd rather Gurley not be ridden like Lattimore was

When evaluating running back stats, the most commonly used (positive) metric is yards per carry. When evaluating quarterback stats, yards per attempt is the equivalent metric, and it's pretty important. I could be a college qb and complete pretty close to 100%, if I had a receiver stand 2 yards away in the back field and lob him the football after every snap. It wouldn't make for an effective offense, but it'd look nice in the stat column, high completion rate with zero ints.

Comparing Hutson Mason's completion percentage against Aaron Murray's isn't useful. Murray threw downfield, and did it with great success. Defenses have to respect that. Unless Mason can do it more than he did yesterday, and with more success, our running game and offensive output will begin to suffer.

nobody said he can't stretch the field. He played a very fine game from my perspective and deserves the largely great appreciation he has received.

P.s. I believe the ability to go down field lies more with receiving corps than qb in UGA's case. Murray also had less opportunities after loss of Mitchell and jsw.

Those dogging Mason today are types who just can't take yes for an answer. We'll get plenty of chances to critique Mason in the future because somebody...at some point....will bottle up the running game and Mason will need to get it done in the air.

And when that happens he'll be fine....

.....nice stat too by the way.

No turnovers. 70% against one of the toughest defenses in the nation. With his two best WRs out.

I was worried about how he was going to handle the pressure of everything, and he was poised through the whole game.

He's going to be just fine, y'all. Just waiting on JSW and MM...
