Shut it down. That’s the worst targeting call ever seen.

Florida State definitely has a worse supporting cast around DJ. Oregon State probably had one of the better OL’s in the country last year, a pretty good rushing attack, & a couple of pass catchers that are going to get a shot in the NFL.
Even with that said there was some calls even there to replace DJ by Aiden Chiles last year because they felt DJ was limiting the passing explosion of the offense. Smith did take Chiles with him to Michigan State.

It’s honestly probably easier for players to put more faith into coaching staffs in situations like that now knowing they got the one time free transfer in their back pocket.

Logically I feels. But my UF hatred boils over and I assume Lagway is just gonna waste a potential dev year under a good program to do whatever garbage this is.

These games never disappoint. I can't belive they robbed us of them for so long.

The Backyard Brawl is going down to the wire with both teams just trading haymakers.
I think he’ll be fine. It’s not easy to start as a true freshmen & Mertz isn’t a bad QB either. If I was Napier though I’d definitely hitch my wagon to him & hope like hell that selling point can save his job.

I don't get the Mertz love.

I don’t think he’s great or anything but I do think he’s above average.

Washington had 4th & Goal down 5 with 70 seconds left in the Apple Cup and what they dialed up was an Option to the Boundary instead of the Field?!

Why did Narduzzi take a timeout to save 9 seconds before the two minute warning? Now he only has one timeout.

I think he's below average. But I'm probably harsh as heck when it comes to QBing

I don’t know why WVU just didn’t let them score once they got down around the goal line. They even blew a timeout down there.
He targeted his ass..can't have that out there lol
I'm with you, bruv - I have watched parts of two home losses, and he has looked like abject dog shit to me.

Meh as someone who had extremely low expectations for him, Mertz is a fairly decent college QB in a Purdy-ish way. He's just caught in a shit storm with a dead man walking in Napier trying to save his job, the #1 QB recruit in the fold, and middling talent around him.
FSU would kill for Mertz.

He's had a blowout stint in which he looked good. But it was Colorado State. This game he's 1 for 1 with a 19 yd pass TD and that rush TD. It's also UTSA. So I don't think it's too crazy. But he also hasn't played below what I think he should do against the competition he's faced so far.

They always blame the OL all the time & I’m not saying it isn’t a problem but Shadeur also just has awful awareness against the pass rush.

It’s almost like QBs are better developed every single year even at the high school level and we don’t appreciate how night and day the position is from even 10 years ago.
He also has a weird arm. Somehow he can make crazy off platform throws down the field, but when he steps into a normal clean pocket and needs to drive the ball, I get Burrow vibes. It’s exactly enough if everything is perfect. But if he loses anything, you’re boned.
