There is a lot more to it than that. Book's comp pct. over the last 5 was 63.3% and his yds/att increased to 8.04 both of which are increases over the first 8 games, which was 58% and 7.36 yds/att, respectively. He threw 17 of his 34 Td's in the final 5 of a 13 game schedule.
And, the weak schedule narrative doesn't work because at the time of playing, both Navy and ISU were top 25-30 defenses with S&P+. And we absolutely shredded both and a lot of their respective averages going in like YPP. In those two games alone, Book was 34/48 for 70.8% comp pct., 6 TD's to 0 INT's, with a yds/att slightly over 11. Those are truly elite numbers against two top 25 defenses.
