Yes this sucked, but Duggan showed something today. He made all the right reads. He just needs time.
How many terrible reads did he make?
How many of turnovers were “Casey Printers” level?
The kid has good form and a cannon for an arm. I liked what he showed during that 4th quarter.
I didn’t like some of Cumbie’s calls, but it happens. If Duggan connects on a couple of those throws, it is a different ballgame.
SMU came to play, and Bueschel was hell bent on not losing to TCU again. The kid stood tall in the pocket, took plenty of shots, and made a bunch of good throws. If you can avoid playing scared, you can beat a LHCGP defense. We’ve seen it over and over. All the way back to the glory days. Tough qbs make it happen sometimes.
I wish LHCGP would have trusted Song to try that kick with the win, but hey, who know.
This game better prepares us for conference play, and we know that Duggan won’t completely crap the bed. I would have taken tonight’s Duggan over any of the qbs we rolled out last year.
