Opponents have thrown five touchdown passes with only one interception on third down, and quarterbacks are very good on third-and-long, throwing three touchdowns on third-and-10 or longer. That's a problem facing McCarron, who's at his best on third-and-long. He completes 76.5 percent of his passes for six first downs on 17 attempts. He also has three touchdowns, but he is also prone to interceptions, throwing two of his five picks in third-and-long situations. Auburn needs to shore up the pass defense when the Tigers do force the Crimson Tide to throw on third down. :lol2: :lol2: :lol2: Bama will roll over these goat humpers. |
