Sims was damn near perfect against FAU, and threw for 214 yards on 13 passes.

Coker was just above 500 completion percentage wise, and got 200 yards on 24 passes.

There lies the difference.


Sims threw a lot more higher percentage throws. Also, this was Sims second start that he improved upon from a week ago. This was Coker's first start. If Sims improved so much over one week, why can't Coker?

My question is this: Kiffin wasn't afraid to call long bombs for Coker, why did he hesitate to do the same for Sims? Could it be that Kiffin doesn't think those long throws are comfortably within Sims range?

Meh, Coker was having trouble completing those high percentage passes, and that was one of his big questions even before he got to Bama.

Like genro said, he has thrown several down field passes so far.
