Welcome back to Thorson’s Throws, our new weekly statistical feature dissecting Clayton Thorson’s play every game. It’s a look at what worked and what didn’t for the quarterback, as well as the tendencies both he and Mick McCall showed in the passing game.
With moving back to Northwestern and classes getting started, life’s gotten in the way of the last two weeks’ columns. But we’re back in a big way, breaking down Thorson’s really poor performance at Duke (which I attended and watched from the press box) and his career-best performance against Bowling Green (which I attended and, for the first time in nearly three years, watched from the student section).
