I gotta believe Lane will be recruiting his future QB this fall….he needs a true dual threat for our offense….I bet we do well if Johnson is able to comeback for some conference play….once Lane gets a real recruiting class or two, we'll see some real things happening…..how we do in our own conference is really the way to measure our improvement….

I believe Parr has a better arm than Driskel. Jason was doing exactly what he always has done. Take the snap, stare at the primary receiver, throw to him, even if he is covered. He has no deception at all. Very easy to defend and break on the ball. O line played well. RBs played well.QB ans WRs way below average. There is no way in heck we deserved to win this game.We need interior D linemen bad. And our LB are under sized. They play hard and fast . But still under sized. Well, I don't think I'll be traveling to see football in December. Now I can buy myself a bigger Christmas gift.

"We thought Driskel played a little bit better during the week so we gave him a shot", said Coach Lane Kiffin.

Agreed – I just hope whatever the story is, Parr will play from here on out.

Kiffin played driskell to confuse other teams for films sake. He thought we were gonna squeak out a win but it just didn't happen. There's no way kiffin is that crazy to pull parr and not put him in when driskell sucks. That or Parr brought home 3 buffalo hookers the night before the game…

On another note, I watched part of the game while wandering around Disney, and from what I saw, I was impressed on the TD drives with the way we ran the ball. Angry about the dropped passes, but driskell still sucks and it's more his fault.

I'd be surprised if we didn't fire Briles if this keeps up.

What is there to confuse, they were overjoyed.

If you've seen one tape you've seen the all.

Overthrown passes, and sacks.

Next.

Motor is so so good. It's amazing how calm he is in traffic, patient, finds holes and scoots. Guys just can't tackle him. 

We are incredibly lucky to have that kid playing for us.

I have chosen to believe Parr hooked up With kiffin's girlfriend and has served his 1 game suspension, back to normal next week.

Here is the difference between Driskell and Parr

Parr:
1.) Parr uses his progression and check downs.
2.) Will try and not take a unnecessary sack
3.) Puts velocity on the ball or touch when need.
4.) Will step up in the pocket or take off running if he has to.

Driskell
1.) takes too long to make a decision
2.) Floats too many passes to receivers allowing defenders to come over and make stops or break up the pass.
3.) stares down one receiver to much
4.) will stay in the pocket too long and take a unnecssary sack when he could run.
