Good find. Regarding the comparison to Auburn, as many have said on this board, we're just one decent QB away from really dominating. I think JL will do what is needed, which is to be a good game manager. And the PAC-12 or whatever they call themselves does not hold a candle to the SEC. :geauxtige
JL will do what Mauck and Flynn did, be a team leader and manage the game. I think over the course of the next few games JL's stats will improve and he will shine.... not as a 'stellar' star QB but as a poised game manager.
If Lee can "manage the game" like Mauck (29 total tds) and Flynn (25 total tds) did in their championship seasons, then this will be a special season, but, just for the record, Mauck and Flynn did more than manage the game, and again, just for the record, I think Lee will improve and that he will do more than manage a game because at some point he will have to win a game.
This sounds right to me - and I think he will improve a lot. Would be really good to see him shine this coming weekend - would do wonders for his confidence and for our receivers as well.
