You talk about Luck not needing to air it out later in games. Was this just your perception from watching the games, or did you look at some numbers? The stats indicate that Luck did not "shut it down" in the second half of games. He had more second-half yardage than first-half yardage on fewer completions. I think this is an argument in his favor--he got better as the game went on--but it certainly tends to contradict the idea that Luck didn't "air it out" in the second half of games.

Your analysis resembles of a fantasy football stats overview.  The rest of us actually watched the games.  Luck didn't air it out in the way OSU or Baylor did--he didn't have the receiving corps to do that anyway.  Watch a few Stanford games.
