jared52 4,354 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Only thing is, Wallace was declared the 3rd string QB a week or two before the season. That means that his snaps in practice were drastically reduced. I would guess he took more snaps tonight with the first string than he did all week in practice. Who knows how much of the offense he knows, or whether he can make better throws that Khiel. It's nice to think the backups are better than the starter, but they are backups for a reason.

AuMarine 1,372 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Fantastic game by the defense. If we had any semblance of an offense we could have won the game. KF is still not getting it. But I am so proud of the way the defense stepped it up.. At least we are not Arkansas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike4AU 1,739 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Wallace is going to help us this year, but I doubt he will become the starter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hutchids 227 Posted September 23, 2012 Author Share Posted September 23, 2012 I like Wallace running a lot more than Frazier. Wallace runs a lot smoother and harder. I was all for Frazier winning the job but I didn't have a clue he had "major" accuracy problems. The pass to omac WIDE open and a Fg wins that game. He doesn't have major accuracy problems. He made some great throws. He made some not great throws. He hasnt been terrible accurate all year... just saying... especially down field...

Do you see some of the catches Lutz and Blake have made? Did you see how open Blake was on the last pass thrown to him? Did you see that swing pass overthrown in the 3rd qtr? Did you see the first interception? Or the second? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miden 0 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Waaaaaaayyyyyyy too conservative on offense. I don't think you have much of a choice. KF is playing his heart out, but hes not ready to make the big plays. If your field general isn't prepared to make the precision bombs down field or pass into tight coverage then your options are somewhat limited.

AUinWV 0 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Absolutely on. He did great before the pressure was on, after it was not so much. Hurts. Take away one or two mistakes (the first missed catch (not on him)) for instance, and we win. I don't question if he's an amazing QB, i wonder if he's ready for the SEC.

shabby 1,958 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Mixed bag. Blocking sucked a lot tonight. He held the ball too long several times. Had some nice throws. Still just not quite there but I see flashes of hope. I thought the offensive line played lights out tonight. The only sacks were a result of Frazier holding onto the ball all day.

Farmer Brown 2,391 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 He can't throw a three yard screen pass unless the receiver makes a spectacular catch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UltraSwagnus 1 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 i just dont think hes mentally ready for the game hes got the tools, but if his head isnt right it just wont make a difference i dont know if hes salvageable at this point, cause honestly had Sammie caught that deep ball the game is probably all Auburn and he plays lights out(who knows but it would have been huge) he makes 1 pass and his numbers are already decent, he makes that pass the LSU safeties have to play deep etc so many things attributed to one dropped pass. I hate it for him because hes a great talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bwillaub 0 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Saw lots of bad throws tonight. Several of the receptions were due to good catches on the receiver's part. How many high throws over open receivers tonight? Some day soon the game will slow down for KF and he will set the plains on fire! I just hope it's very soon. WAR EAGLE ANYWAYS!

AUinWV 0 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Why did it seem like everytime we were third n long we ran? Is that not directly on the QB? He did very well at first, but after at first decides the game. We had it, and lost it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
freemanjiro 0 Posted September 23, 2012 Share Posted September 23, 2012 Listening to the post-game show re: Wallace - I don't remember who said it (Ben Leard?), but they said he has that "it" factor, is always in the film room and doing what he needs to to improve, that his packages are built on what he ran in high school (zone read), and that he had earned PT. If so, burn that redshirt and get him on the field. Hopefully things will slow down more for KF and I hope everyone keeps Driskell / Fla in mind (he is night / day better this year after having SUCKED last year). WDE!

Yeah, that was turrible, to quote Auburn alum Sir Charles. That hurt as much as the quan play. However turrible that drop was, it is safe to say that most of frazier's throw are, let's just say not that close to the receivers hands. That one was nice. Let's see him be that accurate twice in one game. Not trying to diss him, but I hope he can make two great throws in one game this season. So far he doesnt have two all season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't have anything to do with the fanbase or what we think.. it has to do with a QB who is said to be intelligent and knows the offense better than any of the other QBs. Is that true? I have no idea but if it is.. they should be playing him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
