A 16 day long LL sucks and Napier is a dope thread? Ah, good times...
I don’t keep good track of historical wins and losses, but I do remember on RP over the past few years, being said that we “always” lose nationally televised games. Well thanks to coach Napier and the players we can’t say that anymore. Now we can just gripe because we don’t beat a formidable team bad enough...smells like success and makes me happy!!
I said it before and I ll say it again. Our running game is outstanding but who here ever thought our defence could hold a team 4 and 2 etc. Ron Roberts has transformed this defense.
Statistics do not tell the whole story, but Lewis' QBR is the third best in the conference, and he is considerably over average for the country. He played a good game last night, has thrown few interceptions, and has kept many plays alive with his feet. Nobody is suggesting Heisman consideration, but he is a good leader, I believe respected by his teammates, and I don't understand the overt hostility directed towards him by some on here.
I'll take responsibility for the turnover last night. I had just verbalized how we don't turn the ball over much. Next play, interception.
LL is a good manager and leader. As I taught my children, you don't have to be out front to lead.
If you want complete absurdity, check out stAte's message board. They are having a season with multiple injuries and their coach recently buried his wife. Yet some of their fans are calling for Anderson to be fired. Ain't happening...no good coach will want the gig if they kick Anderson while he's down.
IMO you can place a lot of credit for those stats on the coaching staff. They consistently place LL in winnable down and distance.
To his credit LL has very quick reflexes and a high football IQ making things happen with his legs when the play isn’t working for him. We’re lucky to have LL with the current crop of backs and receivers. We could have a washout Bama reject.
