Why has Blake Sims looked like Joe Montana at home and Kiehl Frazier on the road

Anyone have any good theories? I can't ever remember a player looking so good at home and so terrible on the road.

I will say after being in the stadium on Saturday, Sims very rarely gets to his third read. It's Cooper, 2nd read, scramble.

Ole Miss, Florida, Arkansas, A&M, what do you think about the guy?

Ole Miss was Sims first big road game and the loss wasn't on him that day. Turnovers killed us and OJ was to blame on that last pass. We also lost our starting center and 2nd most explosive player. He did play horrible against Arkansas though.

Well for one he's played SMU, Lamar, and Rice at home vs. Alabama, and Mississippi St. on the road.

Also, he looked great @USC and terrible vs. ole miss so maybe your question should be "why does kenny hill look good against bad defense and bad against good ones?" It would be pretty easy to answer.

ETA: I'm so dumb. Sims did play a really good Ole Miss defense on the road, vs. 4 pretty mediocre/bad defenses at home. It's also much easier for any qb, especially a first year starter to bark out hot routes and protection changes at home than it is on he road with loud crowds in Oxford and Fayetteville.

Because you've only played teams with a pulse on the road. Not that hard to figure out.

Despite playing bad at Arky he still was responsible for both TDs. He didn't played awful at OM, either.

Honestly, Sims's stats on the road this season would be good stats for Kiehl Frazier. Dude was terrible.

I object to the use of Frazier as the standard for bad QB play when you have Coker to use for comparison.

ole miss-bama is the first game of his that I've watched closely and I was actually impressed. He's accurate and makes quick decisions with an incredibly fast delivery.

It got to the point where I actually felt bad for him on this play where they broke the huddle with 12 seconds left on the play clock, because I've never seen any shite like this in my life.

Line play hasn't been what it needs to be up until the A&M game. Mostly inferior defenses earlier in the season. Ole Miss and Arky played good defense. If you get pressure on any QB their play is not going to be as good.
