I agree Card wasn’t the reason we lost but people need to stop oversimplifying Card’s limitations. It’s not just the deep ball. He has horrible pocket presence and only throws to open guys because he can’t anticipate. He also misses open guys constantly. There have been a ton of plays with guys running wide fucking open where Card just holds the ball. Another symptom of all this is he rarely throws over the middle. On top of that, his ankle is still hurt, so you can’t run him. When you take all those things into account and factor in that our OL is terrible at run blocking, there’s not a whole lot of options for Sark with our current O. It’s not nearly as simple as people try to make it.
Having said that, Sark absolutely has baked for the loss. He should have been more creative in the second half against Tech. Our 3 RB package got a TD in 3 plays on the first drive and Sark never went back to it.
Obviously Sark needs to beat WVU even if Card is starting, but your example just shows you don’t know what you’re talking about. Jalon Daniels is easily one of the best QBs in CFB. No way Kansas beats WVU without him.
