***AU vs WC Game Thread***

[Shift 352]

I think there is something to take home. We have seen our QB's look bad against this kind of competition. At least JJ looks good. Should only take a week to know where he really stands.

Excellent point.

Half is over.

When I say pressure, I simply mean being The Guy in a real game in front of 80k people. Remember, for 2 quarters each game, NM looked like he had bad nerves in his first 3 games. JJ has not.

Hop off your indignation pedestals, I'm not saying he's the next Cam newton. Just that he looks good under real fire, Opponent notwithstanding.

not indignant....just noting that this is WCU ....not WSU. But glad JJ is having a good game...just saying don't read anything into this game or performance.

He doesn't just look good, it looks like this is his 3rd year doing it. It's not world-beaters, but he knows exactly what needs to happen and how to get it done. Yes, it's WCU. But the way he is playing, it almost makes you feel like he should in in that "it's halftime take out all the veterans and play the rookies" group. That's what I am getting at. For him having 2 quarters experience, he looks like he's got 2 years.

WC has Qb change

[Auctoritas 2,912]

I also input that I don't expect him to look so poised on the road at Kyle Field, if he were to start next week, which I do not expect him to do (unless NMs knee is not back to 100%).

I say he does... but I know nohting.

Tunde, Diamond, Coleman, Danzey all in on the OL. I think Young is still in at RT.

Nice read option keeper by JJ to the 3

The good news about next week if JJ has to play is that TAMU (thus far) has not been a dominant defensive team..and the OL could give him enough time to play "his" game....if the WRs will help him out by running good routes, etc.

Beautiful roll out pass to Bray for a TD

[Auctoritas 2,912]

Man, that JJ run looked eerily familiar.

[PCBAuburnaFan 1]

And just to play devils advocate, Johnson now has as many passing TDs as Marshall

[Shift 352]

Team seems to be hitting on all cylinders today. Even the backups look poised. I know it's WCU but nice to see the guys playing well and having fun.

[BornaTiger 0]

4th td for JJ. Still looking good with 2nd team o-line. WCU is awful.

I'm much more concerned about how our defense will fair against Manziel then how JJ will fair against a wet paper bag

[BornaTiger 0]

This is the way it should be. Blow out even with 2nd teamers on the field.

[gilstein21 1]

the improved DL play gives me hope against A&M. Playing disciplined, and the DEs have improved week to week with keeping contain.
