I’m not an analyst or an expert by any stretch of the imagination, but from what I saw they were stacking the box with Finley in there too. The difference with Jackson was the safeties started having to cheat with the extra run threat. They dared us to beat them in the air, and both versions of the offense failed to make them pay for the scheme they used and it wasn’t always for the same reason. Sometimes the quarterbacks made the wrong read, sometimes they just missed. Sometimes receivers weren’t on the same page like that one where Jackson was jumping up and down all frustrated when the receiver didn’t turn around. Auburn also called some very well-timed good blitz packages at really inopportune times for us. I totally understand not abandoning the run, and I love seeing a running back smash into and over people as much as anyone, but it wasn’t happening. It felt like Spav was living in his plan rather than the reality in front of us all. In the end, the offense has to execute, and special teams failed to do so.
I think he means improving. Jackson V was a wide receiver in HS. In camp, the scouting report was that he has a good, but room-for-improvement passing arm.

You can't be a starting QB at Pac12 and be "just learning how to pass"
