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

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

Because Milroe could have used the reps. I don't believe there was a sincere opportunity given to the other 2.

We better get better in all other phases of the game...history has shown that it's really tough to win big games with 1 read QBs

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.

I think Buchner will remain #2 or #3 going forward. I'm not sure why he struggled... for a graduate transfer with experience, he should've never struggled.

I mean, it was South Florida. They had more of an opportunity to get into a rhythm than Milroe did against a Top 10 team in Texas. Texas recruits five stars in a talent rich state, compared to a down program like South Florida. They both dealt with what Milroe dealt with as far as a rush and no line blocking. Pretty even if not skewed in their favor over Milroe.

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

There’s a huge difference between scrutiny at ND and scrutiny at Bama same goes for expectations

Not sure how much we will see McClellan in future. After whiffing and allowing QB
sack, he did not return Saturday. Attitude problem?

Sabans backs must ...block....#2 didnt do a good job

Thats what i said...he isnt over his head...at ND the massive expectations were there...

Unless...u mean...bama has a greater expectation level...which you know isnt so..

No disagreeing there that could have helped JM...but the other 2 got a fair shot...

That ND team has a better line than us right now

Might. But shouldnt ....
The big uglies need to get an attitude...

Bama has greater expectations than ND, at ND if they get to the playoff they’re happy, at Bama getting to the playoff isn’t good enough

I think Buchner will remain #2 or #3 going forward. I'm not sure why he struggled... for a graduate transfer with experience, he should've never struggled.

After his play this past Saturday, the guy should never get another snap in a game. Those snaps should go to Ty.

I doubt 2 guys splitting reps could have done anything under the circumstances to win the job. This feels like more you get what you ask for. If so, I'd rather have had Milroe in.

Though Saban said he injured his ankle in the post game presser.

Bring on Haynes..

 

[mando]

if the line can figure out what the hell they are doing.

This will be the deciding factor for how season plays out.

I will also keep an eye on penalties and turnovers.

Milroe fumbles the ball on those blind side hits, and no he couldn’t have evaded those it was a clean rush straight off the edge

 

[BamaFan334]

Heard a rumor going around that Milroe was suspended for the South Florida game and that's why he didn't play. Anyone heard anything else about this potentially being true?

I don't think it's true.... Too much conspiracies going on...
