| FTBL Who is the starting QB against Ole Miss this weekend? Milroe announced as #1 going forward.

[24and7]

Sounds like Saban is going with Milroe from the sound of his press conference today. I see the order as this now that Saban has spoken, Milroe, Simpson, Lonegran, Holstein, Buchner. I jest on the order of the final 3, but Buchner sure looked over his head.

But Buchner did do a great warm up dance…like good ol Dak..

From what I've seen I believe JM gives us the best chance to win Saturday. Note this Saturday and that's what counts.

This is the best option.

This is the best option.

Its really the only option..not good..

Milroe can be a fantastic QB if he'd just be a little more consistent with protecting the ball. He has the arm to make some outstanding throws, consistency is the main concern.... as everyone already knows. Hopefully we see more of that out of him Saturday.

I'm so confused about the last week.

Why?

Ty Simpson did decent job, took him a while to get ball going late in the game. Only thing he needs to work is his awareness. Those sacks, he can't keep taking it. He will develop into a real good qb, and that will come with experience. Milroe is a threat with his leg. We know Ole Miss is going to do what MTSU did to them.. load up on the boxes, and We'll see lot of his legs and deep passes... that's all it matters.

I hope you're wrong about QB1.

Why. Gave milroe trxas game. Gave other 2 a chance. Makes sense to me.

 

[64Tide]

Ty took no reps with 1s last week Milroe was in doghouse Saturday due to poor attitude with Buchner supplanting him as starter vs SF. No way Milroe was going to play Saturday. Supportive attitude Saturday got him back in good graces with Sabsn. He is the only viable option we have going forward. Word I have is Buchner trying to get t time Sunday at Indian Hills…guess he sees handwriting on the wall.

Must have watched film of his play.
That would verify " handwriting on wall"

Rees may go to Northwestern next year and Buchner follow him up there.

It is sad how grossly unprepared they all are at qb.. it is almost like we expect a player just to be a Bryce Young or Tua..We have been lucky but I’m not sure they can be coached up that quickly..

 

[64Tide]

Milroe 1, Simpson 2, Buchner LAST. Is our problem Rees? Maybe Rees in over his head…

 

[50+yeartidefan]

Glad it's settled... even if it might not be

Not all is on QB. WHat's #1 thing we've heard consistently? OL issues.

But OC at ND. No more scrutinized program than ND. No more higher expectations than ND.

So. I don't know if he would be over his head

More talent at Bama.

Maybe he just hasn't hit his rhythm

They cannot be coached up to salvage this season. Milroe’s problem is he can’t read defense. We have been fortunate to have had Tua, Jones, and Bryce. Now we get see what it’s like for most other college teams. QB has ability but can’t make good decisions with the ball. It will be an up/ down year with 2-3 more losses.

 

[BamaFan334]

This is the best option.

This confirmed? I was thinking it would be Simpson and then Milroe to compliment the rotation we saw last weekend.

I'm fine with riding Milroe. I think he will be fine as the season progresses, especially if the line can figure out what the hell they are doing.

How they expect the QB to be a Bryce Young. How about the fans expecting the QB to be a Bryce Young

Spoiled

Correct.. we think all these five stars can just play out of the blue…some have been on the bench for years until someone gets hurt… the bench turns five stars into one stars..
