Utah State's QB Jordan Love

[Coach Andy Mac]

Quote

 

Utah State’s offense has been explosive this season, and almost all of that has to do with the play of quarterback Jordan Love. On the season, Love threw for 3,208 yards with 28 touchdowns and only five interceptions. He also added another six scores on the ground. Love is incredible for the Aggies because he plays within the offense and plays within himself. Utah State finds its success by getting to the line quickly and playing extremely fast. If Love is completing passes at a good clip—which he did this year, as evidenced by his 65.8% completion percentage—then opposing defenses are going to get tired quickly.

That should be exactly the case against North Texas, as the Mean Green passing defense is extremely beatable. North Texas gave up 246.1 yards per game through the air this season, which is only good for 88th in FBS. The team does force opposing quarterbacks to make a lot of mistakes—it had 17 picks this year—but Love isn’t the type of quarterback that will give the ball up very often.
