“Trevor throws 50/50 balls”
Jan 18, 2019, 10:41 PM

I’m not sure what the issue is here other than a big misunderstanding of what constitutes a “50/50” ball. Watch these throws. There’s a 50% chance our guy catches it and a 50% chance it’s incomplete. On these so-called 50/50 balls, there’s virtually a 0% chance the pass is intercepted. It’s not 50/50 “our guy versus their guy”. But....whatever makes the Bama/SEC crowd feel better I guess!

I said you guys aren't making yourself look good if all TLAW throws is 50/50 balls and none of you guys caught a single one.

Meh, that was just part of our over preparation. May take a while for them to finger that out.

how opposing defenses never seem to come-up with any of those 50/50 balls.

just too easy.
For the Season Trevor through 397 passes, had 259 completions and 4 interceptions and 30 TD’s. That’s 65% completion. 397 passes? 4 Int’s? Uhhhhh.......looks to me like Trevor throws 99/1 balls.
The 50/50 comment is BS. The person that said it is BS. And anybody that believes it is stupid BS. Neeeeext!!!!!

just to highlight that BS 50/50 comment and the BS person that said it, a little more clearly.
Kyler Murray 377 passes, 7 INTS Tua Tagovailoa 355 passes, 6 INTS.

yeah, his receivers catch the ball in stride at the 50 and then run 50 yards for a touchdown.

Some more of those “copycat” plays Clemson ran. Trevor usually throws 99/1 balls but we KNEW from watching Bama footage that they really struggled with 50/50 balls so we switched TL over.
50% of the time, it works 100% of the time.

A knowledgeable defender realizes that a QB throws the ball high in certain situations, knowing his receiver has the ability to go high and catch it, and the defender cannot touch it. Smart play. Ridiculous statement by Williams.

I'll take 20-30 yard passes that have a 50% chance of being caught and a zero percent chance of being intercepted all day long. With our receivers, a 50/50 to mere mortals is automatically a 75//25 (99/1 against inferior Coot SEC CBs)to our guys. What that sounds like to me is an unstoppable offense.
Throw in a little ETN here and there to keep the safeties looking in the backfield and no one can stop this offense.
Go Tigers !!!

Alabama QB threw tua balls 100/0 they get intercepted. I like our odds going forward with TL.

50 mph/50 yards?
Except that is significantly underestimating the velocity.
