Book 2nd Half

11/12 for 159 2 TD 1 INT

Book's INT was the one official INC. His pass to Claypool at 7:26 in the 4th was also INC due to Pitt's PI, so the attempt never happened officially.

Inconsistent OL played a part in this, but as off-kilter as Book appeared to be, he never got the deer-in-the-headlights look that afflicted Wimbush in similar situations...

...and coming back in the second half and esp. late in a game has not been our strong suit for many a year. If Book's performance overall didn't have an All-American sheen to it, neither did he appear to be rattled or to crumble under the pressure.

Not a bad showing for a guy starting his fifth game.
