    Watched replay with focus on passes!
    First Half:

    Etling's First game in new system after major surgery and against a decent zone defense albeit one that practices against a Ty Detmer coached offense ...
    Points:
    1. ALL PASSES RIGHT ON THE MONEY
    Foster Moreau bobbled a beautifully thrown pass that was right in his hands after two consecutive penalties (1 penalty negated a sideline ROPE completion) ...Foster Moreau didn't drop his next one ... A beautiful third down chain mover ... About 2:30 left in the half check out that quick pass to Williams Etling threw off his back foot ... Shades of things to come ... If it's not bobbled (it was) Williams likely gets a first or closer and LSU goes for it on 4th down and in for six ... Gonsoulin misses the "extra point" FG (a true concern) ... 14 - 0 at half!
    2. RB, TE & Receiver passes included ropes to Dillon & Gage & highlighted by 60 yard post route gem to Chark. Canada spread it out. It was a joyous thing to watch
    3. 11/12 in the first half ... PERFECT THROWS EVERY SINGLE ONE OF THEM

    SECOND HALF:
    4. Etling Pass to Gage with 9:30 left 3rd ...

    gotta watch this replay ... WR weapons to add to CHARK ... Look no further than Russell Gage ... Two runs (play calling? ... Pass on 1st down inside the 10 perhaps) force Etling into a bootleg 3rd & goal at 7 and a tipped ball stops the TD to Moore. FG & 17-0 LSU ... Lather rinse repeat next series with another FG after an Etling keeper inside the 10 ... Etling not sacked in the game ... lather rinse repeat next
    5. 3rd Incompletion = smart throwaway followed by completion to 1 yard line!
    Sadly Repeat of Florida last year ... LSU is stopped and BYU takes over at 2 yard line.

    1 drop ... 1 tip ... 1 throwaway ... All passes on the money to a multitude of weapons!!!
    85% completed ... We will see how he deals with SEC pressure ... one thing is certain ...

    ETLING & HIS WRISTBAND (THE ESPN CLOSE UP OF THIS WAS ANNOYING) OF CANADA GOODIES (12 PLAYS USED?) WILL BE A FORCE TO BE RECKONED WITH IN 2017
