    Let's go drive by drive for Will:

    Drive 1: B. Made all the short throws needed. Missed the wide open TD that he would hit earlier in the year. Made good checks to running the ball. Marks was the star of the drive with Tulu a close second. That screen and then running the defender over was a solid tone setter. Tulu gets the rivalry and I hope we keep him another year.

    Drive 2: F. 3 & Out and pathetic sack. He's not park mahomes. Step up and throw it out of bounds or run it for as much yards as you can.

    Drive 3: F- Tulu saved the game from flipping out of control on us. Scoop and score was the difference in 2020 and we didn't let that happen. Shoutout to Tulu.

    Drive 4: D. At least we got a first down but again he can't throw anything downfield. Pathetic.

    Drive 5: F. 1st & 5 at the 50 and we got 0 yards and 3 incompletions. One receiver dropping passes is on the receiver. Multiple receivers dropping passes makes me question the QB. (Also if you want to give him credit for checking to runs, then you gotta take blame for not doing it here. Woody has four carries the first drive and then 2 more the rest of the half.)

    Drive 6: F. Only reason it's not a minus is that he had a decent air throw to JRob. But he didn't have the arm strength to throw the freaking ball away. Stop scrambling out of pocket and trying to make a throw. He clearly cannot do it.

    Drive 7: A. Best Will drive of the night. He stepped up in the pocket when he felt pressure. Hit the throws he needed. Actually made pretty solid reads. The only thing holding it from a + is the weird short run / dump offs that cost us our timeouts. Thankfully it worked out in the end. Good throw to Tulu. Wonder why we never went back to a play like that (15 yard curl into open space).

    Drive 8: D. It's Fourth down and he tries to scramble then just quits on the drive. Any goodwill he had bought just deflated. The drive moved cause Woody was solid but I'll bump Will from F to D for making the checks to his halfbacks I guess.

    Drive 9: F-. What a ****ing *****. There's no defending that. I don't need to describe which one this was.

    Drive 10: F-. Christ he really REALLY made you wonder if he was trying to throw this game. Back to Back two of the worst plays in terms of being a footballer that I've ever seen someone have.

    Drive 11: C+. Was making good checks to DJ and Marks running as they started to take over. Made some ok underneath throws and did enough to not **** us up. But when we needed to punch it in, he just dumped it to a fully covered halfback. Really felt like we scored the field goal in spite of Will and not because of him. But at least he didn't just completely tank the drive.

    Drive 12: A-. He understood to trust the HBs and made the easiest TD throw I've seen. Can't say he did more than the before half drive, but he did everything asked of him. Make good audible and score TD.

    Drive 13: D+. Not docking him fully here. This screamed weird Egg Bowl shit. He made good reads on 3 of the 4 plays. He at least fumbled moving forward. He was trying to be Mr. Hero and yes, I agree a Will Rogers rushing TD would have been the dagger. But he also had selfish blinders on. And he almost helped us snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

    Drive 14: C. Didn't fumble the snaps and kneeled effectively.


    A QB cannot have 6 F rated or worse drives (almost 50%) and only two A drives and one B drive. We need someone better to take us to the next level. We need to hit the portal if no one on the roster can beat him out. Jayden Daniels came in just fine to LSU. We need to go shopping.

    Drive 8 was the worst for me. Running out of bounds when you committed to scramble on 4th down IN THE EGG BOWL is unacceptable. That tells me everything I need to know about you and your will to win. Absolutely pathetic.

    Drive 13 I am not even mad about (assuming leach called that and Will didn’t check into it). Weird stuff happens on thanksgiving

    I actually thought the call for Will to keep was a good one. Had he not fumbled, no one would say a word about it. Ole Miss committed to trying to stop the RB. Will made a call and I thought it was the right one. Worst case scenario outside of a fumble was we get stopped, get to waste another 40 seconds, and either come away with a TD or kick a FG and get to waste another 40 seconds AND have a 2 score lead.

    I thought it was a good play call that situationally made sense. Will just can't fumble there.

    Yes I agree from an X and O perspective but you just have to know your personnel. I don’t know maybe we practice that play all the time and Will runs it beautifully But with his ball security issues, there is no way I am calling that with the game on the line. Now if you have a guy who is used to running, and we know can keep the ball secure absolutely but nothing about wills game tells us that.

    Personally, I am running with DJ three times in a row (Leach please god install a wildcat package with DJ and Marks both back there) and if we do not get it kick the field goal. Makes it a two score game late in the fourth. You didn’t NEED a TD there, no need to go risky
