We analyze the largest eigenvalue and eigenvector for the adjacency matrices of sparse random graph. Let $\lambda_1$ be the largest eigenvalue of an $n$-vertex graph, and $v_1$ be its corresponding normalized eigenvector. For graphs of average degree $d\log n$, where $d$ is a large enough constant, we show $\lambda_1 = d\log n + 1 \pm o(1)$ and $\langle \mathbf{1}, v_1 \rangle = \sqrt{n} \left( 1- \Theta \left(\frac{1}{\log n} \right) \right)$. It shows a limitation of the existing method of analyzing spectral algorithms for NP-hard problems.
