No longer talking with emotion

it's because they blitzed him every play, it's the same way Washington beat usc today.

He is pretty inexperienced. That is what happens when a lot of kids play in their first big road game. The dude threw FOUR completions for 34 yards last year against K-State and Western Michigan in garbage time. He had no real experience. I know I sound like a broken record, but this was the kids first real game. It was in Blacksburg against a good defense. That is a rough deal. He made some plays, but he played like a guy who needed some experience. Look at USC today... they lost because of their QB... period. So did you. He will get better. I just wish we played you guys early in the season, it could be a different story after he gets a few games under his belt. To think a kid will walk out in his first major situation against a worthy opponent, in a hostile situation, and that he will make great decisions and be on his game, that is expecitng a lot. I think people are being unfair to think he is going ot walk out and play like Ganz in a game like this... If you had Ganz, you win. if you had Zac Lee next year, or maybe even at the end of this year, same story. Until then, be a little patient with the kid and try to realize adjusting to his position is not easy unless you are playing the little sisters of the poor with a good Nebrsaka team around you...

 

Very good point. The guy has only played 3 collegiate games. His first road game could've gone better, and it could've been a lot worse. Just be thankful that our D stepped up and kept it a close game. VaTech is obviously gonna move up in the ranks 3 or 4 spots with upsets over GT, USC, and BYU. We are more than likely gonna go to mid 20's my guess. Huskers will shake it off, Zac Lee will get better this year, and next year will be an even better year for him. I have high hopes for him, and i know that he will do well.

 

Unlike some folks on here, that wanted to slit their wrists, fire the OC, have T-Fresh Cody Green for the rest of the season. C'mon guys calm down. Its an easy two weeks until conference play.

Zac lee played a very good game... anyone that evaluates him differntly is completly out of touch with football.. look at the situation he as put in.. his first touch of the fball was down 7.. watson stuck with the pre written script the entire first quarter, we ran it on first down on every drive and didn't gain a thing putting us in a very predictable situation... second quarter we started to open it up and mix up what we did on first down, guess what, we moved the ball.. the entire game comes down to lack of execution inside the 20.. plain an simple!!! either we had missed assignments on the line, a penalty, or dropped ball... we simply didnt execute inside the 20, its that plain and simple folks!

Sorry, but he played terrible. People are guessing it was the crowd, or the blitzes, or whatever, and maybe those contributed, but there was definitely something else. During that stretch of 8 incomplete passes, those were not because of pressure or covered receivers, he was flat out MISSING throws. Even when Currenski got open on that third and short, if Lee would have actually thrown the ball to him he could have started running downfield, but instead he had to tip-toe the sideline and fall out of bounds. There was something seriously wrong with Zac Lee today, and it was a separate factor than the pressure (most of the time when he got hit he still had a few seconds in the pocket anyways) or the receivers being well covered.

With the exception of not getting in the endzone, Lee did not have that bad of a game. I thought they were looking for the deep ball too much, and not getting to the tight ends in the redzone. 1st big game is over and time for the next, Zac will be fine and this team will get better. The loss sucks, but I thought the whole team played great and they have to move on.

Says it all, the rest of the thread reduces to plausible deny ability.
