He had games like this last year (Auburn and Mississippi State come to mind, he was also real bad in the second half vs LSU).
No one really paid attention because we rolled them but Mond was pretty bad vs NCSU too.
We started mauling them once we stopped even trying to pass. He threw for -2 yards in the entire 2nd half on 3 attempts. The only drive we didn't score on he threw twice (both incomplete).
That's one reason why I'm not too worried. We physically whipped NCSU. We're going to do that to a few teams this year and good or bad Mond just won't matter.

We might be able to out physical some teams on the schedule but eventually we are going to run into decent teams that can stop the run and will force him to pass. If he then has a bad game like Saturday, we can lose to teams that we shouldn’t (like miss st).
I’m not sky is falling yet like some people but it’s disappointing to know that we are a good/consistent qb away from being a very good team. I guess I also still am a bit miffed about Jimbo’s whole “QB whisperer” persona. Mond is not any better today than he was in the games he started under Sumlin. I think he has the physical tools: he’s got the arm strength, he’s got decent speed to be a dual threat, but his problems just seem to be all between his ears. Thought Jimbo would be able to correct that and work on it but so far we haven’t seen it.

This is a good point.
We need Mond to get us over the hump against good teams, but the rest of the team is good enough to render his mediocre play (in some games) meaningless.
We won’t beat bama, but we have at least a shot at every other game. 9-4 still the ceiling,
