He pretty much owns every passing record in SU history and maybe even a few BE records, but now he is a winner by anyone's estimation. SU is 19-17 when he starts. If they win next week the team will be 20-17, and SU will have a winning record when Nassib starts under center no matter what happens in the bowl game.
Like a lot of people last night I felt like SU was running the ball more than it should, so I began to keep track. At the half by my accounting SU had 38 snaps on offense- 24 rushes and 14 pass attempts which is 63% run and 37% pass. Ryan was 8-14 with a big drop. If Ryan had been 9-14 his completion percentage would have been 64%. As it was his percentage was 57% which is pretty good. Guys were open, and Nassib had time to throw.
SU had 7 possessions in the second half. To start the 3rd quarter I expected them to throw early and often, but after the first two possessions they continued to run about the same pattern- 64% rushes and 33% passes.
On the final 5 possessions of the second half SU passed the ball 22 times and rushed the ball only 2 times! That is 91% pass plays and 8% rushes. They scored 21 points on 3 TDS, had one 3-and-out and one TO on those 5 possessions. Alec and Ryan went off. Nassib was 14-22 connecting on 66% of his passes.
I'm glad SU won.
The other good news is SU ran the ball well for the most part, and Sales had 8 catches to Lemon's 12. Nassib targeted Lemon about the same as Sales until the final drive where he went to Lemon 6 times and connected on 4 of them to win the game. The OL was fantastic.
