Message: [QUOTE="Archbold44, post: 5538752, member: 10528"] The pressure seems to get to Collins as a starter. 3 starts, 2 interceptions on Drive 1. That is why Fran needed to get the FG against SMU on Drive 1. Rickie needed a successful drive (vs empty drive) more than we needed a TD there. I think it might have relaxed him and the team to see that we can actually take a kickoff, drive the field, and get a lead under Rickie. Again, Heupel took the 3 points against us with Aguilar. Everyone talks about confidence, but with Collins we are trying to get him to a point where he is not the worst QB in P4. Forget about keeping the #1 passing offense and padding scoring/yardage stats. We are many many baby steps behind that hope. Maybe we start Carney and bring Collins in for relief. If Carney can avoid turnovers to keep the game close... and Collins can come in and play the hero... maybe it will start to click. [/QUOTE]
