🏈 If Robinson doesn't play...Then do we go with Hurts?

[utstnx]

If we dont have Robinson to watch out for the QB...do you think Saban goes with Hurts....a QB who can get out and escape and make something happen. Before the arrest I would have said Saban always goes with a more experienced QB.....but now...not so sure.

Saban isn't about to throw Hurts to the wolves! IF Cam is unavailable, you could see more sprint out passes to get away from that side, more screens, or having Brandon Greene at the TE and staying in to help on that left side. Several more possibilities before CNS would bail like that and go true freshman at QB.

Don't overlook Bateman's athleticism, not to mention he runs the fastest 40 of the QB's.

We'll still have a LT, we just don't know who. The drop off to #2 is unknown. Hurts won't be close to starting by September. As @uagrad93 said, look for some play changes to account for what we have and what we're missing.

I'm confident CR will play.

Me too. Might miss a game or two but not prolonged
