He is cleared for contact but no way is he able to be mobile yet.. that could change by Kentucky though. Man I hope so loved what Bennett has done by stepping up for us when we had no choice but I think we can all agree that he is just too limited to defeat Bama for an entire game. sdogg 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

When we lost I was just like ok we will see in December Mad? No. Disappointed. We were winning 24-17 right before halftime and then let Bama drive from their 25 yard line to our 34 in less than 20 seconds so they could try a long field goal... which they made. So we went into halftime with a 24-20 lead. Then we proceeded to not score a single point the rest of the game. We turned the ball over twice more and missed a field goal while Bama scored touchdowns. Some of us saw that kind of disappointment coming though. Some might even say the Dawgs did better than they expected. We don’t have a legit QB and that’s a big deal. Let alone with going up against a team as overall talented as Bama is and with as good an offense as they have. You’re just not going to stop them and keep it a low scoring game. They have a better receiving corps than some NFL teams. If we see them again in Atlanta and Bennett is the starting QB then I’m just not going to expect to win that game. I love his story and he’s a DGD through and through, but there’s levels to this game and we need a better QB to win a championship. putnam6, The Great American, PapaJoe and 2 others 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
BamaBirdLady 1,080 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I had a great time in Tuscaloosa, so nice to see my kids who ended up with tickets after all. You guys had all us really nervous during 1st half. But as I read your posts, you are all right, SB is not the QB to take you guys to the next level. Seeing him in person standing next to the other players on the field, you really see how short he is. I’m happy there were no injuries and I am sure we will meet again in December!

Daniels is better, but I’m not sure he is going to be good enough to elevate UGA to a title level. A 3 star kid came in to USC last year and left no doubt about who’s job it was last year. Not to keep beating the dead horse with Fields but (well you see where I’m going). May have to wait until next year with the new kid. 23 minutes ago, Carter said: Just to do both posts in one... there were plays to be made. Even in the second half when I felt Alabama adjusted well, I looked and saw some guys running wide open. Alabama’s defense will hopefully get better (at least I hope for my sanity!) but I’m sure y’all’s offense will be a little better with Daniels. He’s better than Bennett, but good enough to possibly have to beat Alabama, Clemson and Ohio State in three straight games? Not sure about that Carter and BamaBirdLady 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I never expected him to play this season and wasn’t really sure why they pressed for him to be eligible immediately. Although I guess it doesn’t really matter because the NCAA is not counting this season against anyone’s eligibility and expanding scholarship limits for next year. As far as Daniels goes though, anything he does this year is more than I expected. He’s still recovering from his knee injury. And I’ve pointed out numerous times that he wasn’t exactly a world beater at USC anyway. I think this loss presses a lot of fans into desperation mode because Bama is the team we have to get over that hump with. Florida is another matter and we have to beat them as well, but we’ll have to go through Bama again if we want to win championships. And while our defense largely appeared to be up for the challenge until the offense collapsed, there really wasn’t much to inspire confidence that a rematch would go any differently. Bennett missed wide open outside reads all game long and continues to throw into coverage across the middle. Our premier #1 WR is suddenly a non factor in games while others are getting 10+ targets. Defenses are going to scout that. That’s going to become a real issue. The thought that really keeps creeping up on me is that a QB who was told in spring that he probably won’t be playing is now our QB1 and is very likely saving this team from an even worse situation at QB. sdogg 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Prison Mikey 39 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Bennett is a sub 6 foot guy that addicted to throwing it above the interior lineman, what couldn't go wrong. Daniels is not a savior or anything but he's the best option by far. He was a high school senior starting for SC, may have matured by the time until now. You have to see what you got with him against UK. sdogg and TX Falcon 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I would guess they make that decision together but ultimately Kirby is the head coach and has the final say on just about everything. Newman opting out hurt this team. But that’s not saying much. We have recruited QBs exceptionally well, even pulling them away from Bama and Florida and Ohio State... we just haven’t managed it worth a **** after they’re on campus. Three 5 star QBs signed in the last 5 years and the only one on the roster is a transfer from California coming off a major knee injury. Two are on NFL rosters and the 3rd is a Heisman favorite at another school. I don’t know how we managed to screw up the QB depth so badly but that’s on Kirby for sure. Mathis and Beck are great prospects but both are essentially first year players. It’s not an ideal situation at all.

If JT isn’t healthy enough to step in yet then we’ll have to stick it out with Stet. That is assuming that JT is better than Stet at this point too Quote Link to post Share on other sites

PapaJoe 3,233 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Fromm (Mr. Outside) + Bennett (Mr. Inside) mashup would get you one somewhat better QB that throws to all parts of the field and is reasonably capable and competitive. Corn Pop and sdogg 1 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Boise Falcon Fan 4,113 Posted October 19, 2020 Share Posted October 19, 2020 Nice win by Bama. No excuses for the Dawgs. Plenty of people thought that Stet was the answer, but he's not.

Then this year one transfer fell through and the other has medical issues he's just getting over. Remaining guys are fairly new. Bennett seems to be well coached all things considered. Experience is lacking right now from the unit. I'd love to see the others get a shot. Were they just completely wrong on Mathis? Will Daniels be ready this season? Beck? It's a shame though, because the defense is Championship caliber. Edited October 19, 2020 by GAbred Spelling Wardog357 and sdogg 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Where were the 4-5 stars sitting on bench waiting for Fromm to move on? Sure, there was Fields, but whatever the reason Kirby didn’t use him wisely. Now, don’t get mad at me, but any mop up duty he got it was just hand offs. Saban let Tua come in and throw the ball around, even when we had a big lead. That is why he was ready during the last game of the season. Behind Hurts there was Tua and Mac Jones. sdogg 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
