It’s not a stretch to say that James Blackman continues to get better with each passing week.
The true freshman threw 21 passes against Duke this weekend and only missed on three of them. One was an incompletion over the middle to fellow freshman D.J. Matthews and the other two were interceptions while targeting Nyqwan Murray.
The two interceptions are ugly, but they overshadow a fairly solid game by Blackman through the air. With the running game operating on all cylinders, Blackman finished 18/21 for 197 yards. That 85.7% completion percentage is easily the best of his young career.
