While I've been bemoaning our low completion percentage, one factor to keep in mind is we take more deep chances as a percentage of our passes than most colleges. When teams try to load up to stop the run, we typically go downfield 5+ times a game.

My bad!

I kind of thought McM was over 50% as he's had a couple of very high completion percentage games now. BTW: The catch (I think it was) Amari Jones made on a 3rd and 8 over his shoulder and leaping to grab it about 3 feet off the ground was incredible.
