Woodson shows poor decision-making; Kansas FB McAnderson impressive
Kentucky QB Andre Woodson had a rough day in a loss to Mississippi State, one of the five matchups Scouts Inc.'s Steve Muench looks at in his weekly scouting report.
Woodson's Heisman Trophy hopes took a substantial hit after he threw three picks in the fourth quarter of Kentucky's stunning 17-point loss to Mississippi State. On the first interception Woodson tried to hit WR Steve Johnson down the right sideline on a third-and-10 play, but the ball bounced off CB Anthony Johnson's hands and into the hands of S Keith Fitzhugh. This play showed flaws in both Woodson's technique and decision-making. His failure to step into the throw resulted in an underthrown pass that allowed Anthony Johnson to get his hands on it, and though Steve Johnson had a step on Anthony Johnson when Woodson released the ball Fitzhugh was in perfect position to help over the top. Woodson never should have thrown the ball there.
