B. Allen got a helmet sticker from espn.

[atekido]

Said he might not have put up the numbers of other QB's in the SEC but he was the most efficient being 4/5 with 4 TDs lol.

I will take it.  This game was the best thing that could have happened for the Hogs.

[WardamnHOGGLE]

Good for him.  The young man needs some encouragement.  He ain't the best, but he's the best we've got.

[Phil D]

kudos to BA :razorback:

[The real Hogules]

I thought that Austin preformed well, also.
I know he threw the pick, but over all I'd say he gets a solid "B" for his play in his first college game

[DeuceHawg]

He may not be the best but he's better than we give him credit for.  I can't imagine going out there every week and performing with all he's gone through.  He definitely deserves this.

This...   +1

What was his QB rating?

[PonderinHog]

540 or something.

[arkmark]

What was his QB rating?

BA sits at 178.7 QBRat for two games played.  He ranks 6th in the SEC for QBs with two games played.

[Tejano Jawg]

Sorry I missed the sticker presentation. I used to enjoy staying up for it, back when we had players who actually won a few.

Way to go Brandon! Yeah, you don't get many days with passing stats like that!

[Hog N Bama]

Happy for BA, thankful the real BA is healthy and doing a fine job WPS!

I really hope somebody told him about that or he saw it.

    Congratulations Brandon Allen on your helmet sticker from ESPN!

Adda Boy BA

BA -A AA- B the Brothers did just fine.

Was that morse code?

[three hog night]

BA sits at 178.7 QBRat for two games played.  He ranks 6th in the SEC for QBs with two games played.

He has 2 more games to get into a confident rhythm that he has not had since he went in for Tyler Wilson against #1 Bama 2 years ago.

[hobhog]

he did what he needed to do, and I think he gets better as year goes on. On critical note, I wasnt impressed with "deep" throw to Hatcher on TD. Hatch had to wait on it as it was underthrown. Sure would like to see him OVERTHROW somebody....

But he is our leader and need him to stay healthy.

[Tripod1]

It's official now.  BA no longer sucks!!  Congrats to the young man.  I am in his corner.

[TDHawgs]

I saw in the last game that BA is definitely ahead of his brother Austin. Austin did great, but not at BA's level yet. 

[three hog night]

The hometown boy needs more success/confidence so that he doesn't feel so much pressure to pull a rabbit out of the hat.   He will show out once he starts settling down and letting the game come to him more.

Yeah and if he over threw him, people would be gripping saying how can he overthrow a wide open receiver.  When a receiver is that wide open, you want to make sure you throw it to where he is.

This!

Coaches are right, the drop off from #1 to #2 is a mile-wide. Hope it closes before Austin has to try to win the job. Otherwise, Peavey or Storey will be the starter before Austin is.

agree....BA gets it done this year & AA looked pretty darn good for a pup

[redeye]

It's nice to see BA receive some well-deserved praise.

As for AA, he's still heads and shoulders above Derby and having a competent backup is huge, imo.  Derby is great at TE, though.

[jacobp]

This. You don't risk overthrowing a receiver that wide open. I think he put it pretty much exactly where he wanted to.

[clew]

We know what happens when he hits the wide open receiver in stride though, right?  Saturday was a lesson on how to keep the receiver from focusing on the end zone before he catches the ball.

Hatcher was wide open.  Last thing you want to do, is overthrow a receiver that open.  Better in that situation, to throw it where he can have a sure catch, & a long gain..... than a long incompletion, that shows off arm strength.  Don't score much, on overthrown passes.  Allen has plenty of arm strength.

Remember the Auburn game?  Hit the same receiver in stride with a perfect long pass & it was dropped. Arm strength was not the problem.  If he had overthrown that ball, there would be people on here complaining about how Allen should have taken a little off of a sure touchdown throw.

Yep, this is true.

[three hog night]

BA looks good now but will improve a lot over the next 2 games.  There will be a lot of haters that have to eat some crow.

[hawgmasta]

Especially since both teams should be heavily focused on stopping the run. I doubt they will be all that effective so they'll be tired and BA can efficiently throw a few more TD passes.

[bruisemeister]

Is there another show which gives helmet stickers other than May, Holtz and Davis? I don't remember them giving him one.

[three hog night]

that is why play action passing is so powerful
