We have the talent to play and handle them. The difference between a 7 point win and 27 will be game plan and QB play. After rewatching I'm not as resistant to Levi but that dont make me think he is the answer. I think his knowledge of our offence is why he is starting. I trust Naps but liberty is no Moo State. Yes i do realize he made some curious calls but this is the first game . On to the fighting Jerry Fallwells.

LL is still an inexperienced college QB. His ability to execute the offense will expand over the next 4-5 starts. Doesn't mean he's destined to be an all conference QB. Also believe if our defense is improved, we're not playing from behind so much which benefits anyone playing QB. Let's give LL a chance to develop. If he becomes a turnover machine the coaches will bench him.

What I didn't like about Levi yesterday:

1. Came out more jittery than I expected.
1a. That first interception was an awful decision/throw.
2. Seemed to pass up running opportunities when they were there for easy yards.
3. It didn't matter to the game result, but the scramble at the end of the game should have been a pass out of bounds once he was outside the tackle box or at the very least running out of bounds.

Things I liked:

1. Led some very good drives, especially the 99 yard TD scoring drive.
2. Down 35-14, 4Q, could've packed it in, but got the team back to a one score game.
3. Extended plays from a pretty good pass rush on multiple plays.
4. Threw to the TE for a TD.

A thing I suspect (and why Napier likes him as his #1 QB right now).

1. The kid is a battler and his teammates respond to that. I'm sure some of you can come up with examples, but when it was 35-14 going into the 4Q, I was expecting it to start to get really ugly, as in past games against P5 opponents with that kind of lead ... but it didn't happen. Levi had not played well going into the 4th quarter and was down 21. I think he showed stones putting those first three quarters aside and executing in that fourth quarter.

On another note, the QB room may be talented, but is grossly inexperienced. I am sure I will be corrected if I am wrong, but the only other fully healthy QB here in January was true Fr McDowell. Napier is always discussing 'trusting' players, well, right or wrong, that is a pretty short time frame to build trust.

I think Liberty will be a good competitive game, that we could (but shouldn't) lose. However, I fully hope and expect that we blow Texas Southern out and we get some game reps at least one other QB.

Number 2 is the answer. If he can implement his running ability and present it as a true threat to defenses, we will run the table in conference play. The dude is too quick and agile not to use that ability more often.

At the start of the game he lacked confidence and was just running the play as drawn up.

That 99 yard drive was a confidence builder.

I agree gents. If Levi is our guy, Napier needs to implement play calling to suit his ability. Like Babb, Dez, Gautier, Broadway, hell even Brad McGuire could run when he needed to. Option..

Too much running at his size may get many on this board what they want.

An opening to run will always present itself to any QB. He needs to make that decision quickly and be able to make opponents pay. It will open up the offense that much more.

.....A replay showed 2 illusive moves on his TD and yes the scrambles showed some non sacked qualities..... need to have him for a starter next game!

He is a junior with 3 years of experience... this is not a true freshman this is peak LL

Very slick run! #1 will be fun to watch. I became a fan yesterday. Adds another dimension to the offense. With the right play calling and game management we will be dangerous especially with our already
great running attack. We sustained long drives against an SEC defense and had 27 first downs. I was impressed with the overall offense, alot of the credit is to the man that gets the snap. Napier will maximize his skillset just like he did with Nunez last year.
