In response to another poster, I think that there would be concerns
about Keller even if the receivers had no drops.  That critique starts
with three turnovers, not the completion rate.

Others have compared Keller's throwing motion to Frost's.  There is
a similarity.  Another similarity is that Frost was here for a year
before he took the reins.  Another similarity is that Frost struggled
a bit when he did take the reins.  I remember NU's "greatest fans in
the college football" booing their in-state QB who would later lead
the team to a championship.  Unfortunately, one difference is that
Frost had two years to get that championship.  This is the only year
for Keller.

If he's going to be successful, it seems like he needs to relax.
Perhaps being a big underdog to USC would let the team play a little
looser and more fired up than they seemed to be yesterday.
