It’s a tough way to end his college career. In a way I feel for him because he will probably never hear the end of it by opposing teams fans and the so called narrative around him. The throw was a head scratcher for sure, but it’s not why we lost the game
 
He should have thrown that to Mali.

If you are going to throw that.. you must put more air on that

I'm as guilty as anyone for focusing on that last throw that ended our Championship hopes. But we all need to remind ourselves that there were many reasons as to why we were in that position to begin with - missed FG, blocked punt/TD, not pulling O'Conner when it was obvious they were going at him every play, LOTS of missed tackles...

This game is the Ole Miss game in reverse - Indiana deserved to win and outplayed us for most of the game. We were in it, even after lots of mistakes, but we failed to convert. Simple as that.

That was just an impatient throw. Had Mali on the cross, frustrating.

He did but if Carson had the arm, the play was there.

Of course, why call that play if he doesn’t have the arm and why make that throw if you don’t have the arm.

Good play if he’s 15 yards closer. The coach needed to stick to what was working. There was no need to panic and go for that play there.

Look, Keelan can be down about it. It's true, he didn't seem to realize the ball was coming his way.

But I've since watched that play numerous times. Keelan destroyed Sharpe on the route, and when Sharpe recovered, he was INSIDE of Keelan. Then you had a safety sprinting towards Keelan from the middle of the field.

ALL CARSON HAD TO DO WAS THROW THE BALL TO THE PYLON. The possibilities are that Keelan sees it, and makes the catch...or the ball falls incomplete. But you can see from Keelan's route that he is gently veering to the outside. There is no way in **** that the safety makes the pick, nor does Sharpe make the pick, if the ball is just thrown higher and farther and more to the outside. With an incompletion, we are still in the game. With a touchdown, we win.

I'm not sure why Keelan, after beating Sharpe on the route, wasn't looking for the pass as soon as he got past Sharpe. Regardless, Carson threw a terrible pass given that coverage and Keelan's route.

Sad.


Why is the ball not thrown to the second circle? If Carson does that, the safety never gets to it before Keelan does, and Sharpe never undercuts for the pick.

The play call actually wasn’t bad. He could’ve took that shot if he actually threw the ball good and Toney was open underneath

It’s an NFL window and throw and he obviously can’t make that throw. Just being honest.

I don’t know if prior to the injury he could make that throw. I didn’t pay much attention to Carson at UGA but he hasn’t been hitting many deep throws this year out in the boundaries.

Someone with access to stats can look it up but I would guess he’s hitting on 15% or less on those types of throws.

Beck hasnt made that throw all season. His deep shots have been really inaccurate most of the year. Idk why we went to that if it wasnt wide ******* open. Right play was take the easy 1st down to your best player in Toney. Crazy how much we force feed him and then don't look for him on the biggest drive of the season. Marion didnt know he threw but he shouldn't have thrown it.

💯 - Most of the time those throws by him have been short. Just like last night. He under threw that ball by 5-7 yards.
