As I was watching Haskins acting all flustered and erratic, after getting rattled from the pressure, I realized that OSU may have made a huge mistake by naming him the starter and letting Joe Burrow leave the building. Having watched at least significant parts of 4 LSU games this year, it's become evident to me that he is the real deal, and will likely become an NFL starter. All he ever needed was his shot to "be the man", and he's doing it well.
I don't know if I'd jump the gun so quickly on Haskins Sunset. That was the first time Haskins had faced 110,00 fans screaming at every snap, the first time he had faced being blitzed like that and constant pressure. And yet he still led two TD's drives to win the game in the final 8 minutes.
Yes he got very rattled early but he recovered for the most part. I'm willing to see how he does down the road.
