Lucas: Sexton Grows Up

Posted Sep 17, 2006

Cameron Sexton completed 14 of 20 passes Saturday night for 265 yards. But it wasn't necessarily the raw numbers that were important. It was the kinds of passes he completed. He threw short, touch passes. He threw a precision slant for a 3rd-down conversion. He threw from the comfort of a cushy pocket created by his line and he threw on the run. He threw all the passes a good quarterback throws, and he threw them well. (Tar Heel Blue)
