Without injury, and a full slate of practices, he may have been alright. That team could have been alright too. We had some upper class talent and some good transfers. They just all got sideways in the middle of the woke COVID bullsheet, and Leach sent them to rock kicking school.

Remember, Lesshead had already started the transition to a passing offense, so it wasn’t a total rebuild at that point. It was once we kicked all the poison out and started the freshmen.

Costello didn’t come to State until after Joe Moe.

Just watched replay of LSU game 2020. Forgot how awesome KJ Costello played. What if he hadn’t been injured?
Eh, even in that game KJ showed glimpses of why he would ultimately fail. He had four turnovers including one of his patented pick sixes. The game would’ve been an absolute blowout without that. We can thank Bo Pelini and his idiotic decision to play man defense the whole game for that result. We had guys running wide open the whole game.

He was possibly the most accurate passer we ever had however.

They still didn't know how to block from Moorhead's stupid read scheme. Made our offensive line extremely slow

He turned the ball over how many times? If he hadn't, he'd have likely had over 900 yards of total offense.
Our receivers were wide open all game long.
It is wierd to say, but the game was almost a complete failure because 750 yards was easily obtainable in that game. The fact he only had 623 is almost an embarrassment.

We won and it was cool, but even in 2014 with our big victory in Baton Rogue we let them hang around for a more respectable score (they almost came back and won after Mullen took his foot off of the gas).
The only time we blew LSU out in Death Valley is when John Bond did it. In the wishbone, I might add.

KJ would damn near close his eyes and just let the ball fly!
