YStar - Let me see if I follow what you're saying.
Pre-snap read of coverage allows Tua to make play changes, set routes for that coverage, which has multiple routes with priorities assigned to the routes (1st read, 2nd read, etc.). Tua has performed well in this scenario. 1st read is covered, moves to next available/open receiver.
The better defenses we played later in the year (MSU, UGA and Clemson) showed one coverage/blitz package pre-snap and changed post snap.
You're not saying he had trouble going to check-downs based on pre-snap coverage that didn't change. Your issue is with his ability to adapt to the post-snap change and how it impacted his primary target/read.
And Oklahoma's defense sucked so bad --- it didn't really matter.
Am I off target here?

That is how I felt about it, well put.
The second interception is the perfect example - they bailed out deep and Tua, expecting no defender to be in that area (I assume based on his pre-snap read), just launched it up without even looking left I think. If he had taken the time to look, he probably would have realized he had a dump off to the RB with 30 yards of open field around him.
I don't think its a terrible issue, he just needs to learn to play within himself and understand that good defenses are trying to fool him as much as good offenses try and fool a defense so be careful with his reads.
