This kid is a stud. I know we've not really played anyone, but he's 66 for 75 with 734 yards and 9 TDs in 2 games. He also has a rushing TD, this should be an interesting year for us in our inaugural year in the Big 12

I'm not taking anything away from the SEC because they are fast as hell on defense, but last year (first year under Holgerson) Geno put up over 450 yards and 2 TDs on LSU. Now I know that Alabama's defense was good last year too and probably better than LSU's, but that was against one of the toughest SEC defenses. I know we lost that game, but that's still high numbers against a better defense than we'll see in the Big 12

And I think Geno is a lot better this year than last year with a year under his belt with this new offense so maybe we'll get a chance to see what happens in a BCS game this year. I'd be interested to see what happens that's for sure

The Tigers (4-0) converted two of the four turnovers they created into scores, built a big early lead and withstood West Virginia's strong comeback for its third win over a ranked opponent this season, with all of three coming away from home. Every win so far has been by double digits.
West Virginia (3-1) outgained LSU 533-366. Smith set school records for completions (38), attempts (65) and passing yards (463). But he was intercepted twice after throwing one in the previous three games.
And for the second straight year, the Mountaineers (3-1) couldn't overcome a double-digit halftime deficit to the Tigers.
"We got down early and we came out in the second half and fought to the end," Smith said. "We learned that if we don't shoot ourselves in the foot, we can pretty much play with anybody."

I was hoping we would've went to the SEC as well, I think it would've been better for recruiting. I don't understand how we ended up in the Big 12 and Missouri is in the SEC, that just makes no sense to me
