Clemson is going to boat race LSU this weekend.

And in games against FBS opponents, he threw for 23 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. Y'all are excited to run him back out? Why? He's inaccurate and turns the ball over too much. He also is a statue who was 10th out of 16th in pass rating for SEC quarterbacks last year (sandwiched between guys like Pavia and Reed who can actually run the football). I just do not get it. Seems like a very pedestrian QB who racks up some yardage because LSU throws a lot.

I've seen really good LSU QBs. He ain't one of them.

That's rich coming from a team whose QB has barely played any college football and is ranked #1. That last name will only carry you so far.

At least our QB has real SEC experience and put up pretty solid numbers last year.

That's kind of the point. He has a lot of experience. And has not been anything but pretty average.

Against FBS opponents (taking out Nicholls State), he had 23 touchdowns and 12 interceptions. He played like shite against A&M, Ole Miss, Alabama, Florida, Arkansas, and South Carolina. I just don't understand why people think he is good. He has a long track record of 31 games played and being mediocre.

He throws too many interceptions and is not very accurate despite playing with great receivers (62% career completion %)

Arch has to prove it. But he played well when called upon last year.

Red River

I think with Lagway they can be really good. I have no confidence he will stay healthy.

It was the 2nd play of the 2nd drive from your own 35 yard line..

Driving..

1st Half Arkansas possessions
3 plays 7 yards (punt)
2 plays 9 yards (interception)
3 plays 6 yards (punt)
7 plays 15 yards (punt)
3 plays 4 yards (punt)
1 play -6 yards (end of half)

2nd Half Arkansas possessions
6 plays -5 yards (punt)

Summary: 6 drives, 25 plays for 30 yards

The score was 13-0 with 8 minutes left in the 3rd quarter.

Yes, you had back to back good drives after that.. but you hadn't been doing anything up that point.

But Arkansas was driving man! They had 9 yards. Texas' D-line whipped Arkansas, sacking the QB 6 times and shutting down their running game. Game was never in doubt. Texas led 10-0 at halftime and slept walked to a ten point win while running out the clock taking a knee in scoring position.

I called this last year. Watch and see. Texas will get the cupcake like they have had this year and last.

Arkansas is one of our cupcakes this year and going forward permanently

The should reveal the pussy schools who opposed a 9 game schedule.

9 game conference schedule. 3 permanent rivals. Play the other 6 home and home and then rotate.

A 4 year player plays every SEC team at least twice, once at home and once on road.

You avoid ridiculousness like A&M being in the conference since 2012 and having played Georgie 1 time.

Bowl games were considered more like exhibition games back then. A reward for a good season. I think the AP only started voting after bowl games in 1968 and the UPI/Coaches in 1975.

There are plenty of AP and UPI/Coaches poll #1s who lost their bowl game. Every single one was a national champion based on the system at the time.

1960 Minnesota
1964 Alabama (lost to Texas but still AP #1)
1965 Michigan State (UP)
1970 Texas
1973 Alabama (UPI champ but lost to Notre Dame in Sugar Bowl)

Non playoff bowl games now are now turning back into exhibition games.
