Kyle McCord had his sharpest performance yet against Western Kentucky, throwing nearly as many touchdowns (three) as he did incompletions (four) on 23 attempts.
For the second straight game, Kyle McCord showed plenty of improvement while continuing to develop and work on his efficiency.
While completing 19 of 23 passes for a very efficient 82.6% completion rate, McCord threw for 318 yards and three touchdowns in just under three quarters of work, a yard short of his career high. The junior had a 241.8 quarterback rating while throwing to a number of different receivers all over the field.
“As an offense, we felt like there were times where we looked really good in Week 1 and Week 2, and then there were times where we kind of spun our tires. And we knew if we went out and we could put together a complete game, it would look really, really good,” McCord said after the game. “If we were able to run the ball well, if we were able to pass the ball well, we would be one of the best offenses if not the best offense in America.
