where do you see anyone acting like that?


In the post I quoted. And in countless discussions about Milroe's issues, both here and everywhere else. It is 100% the most often cited reason for why A. We didn't win the NC. Or B. Milroe wasn't great.

its overblown because it was so obvious? Uh, ok


Yes. It's talked about so much because it's something even stupid people could see. Again, see: scapegoat

No one mentioned it much because it was spring practice.


bullshite. It wasn't talked about because it happened to all the QB's, but none of them dropped a snap, and they all played reasonably well. Plus, anyone trying to defend Milroe in that game could just point to the passes his WR's dropped.

I mean, it could be argued that if we don't have bad snaps in the Rose Bowl, then we win. But I've never seen anyone on here state that Milroe's primary struggle last season was bad snaps.

Calling it a scapegoat implies that it wasn't real, valid, or significant. It was all of those things. It was something that is generally easily executed, yet it was a big struggle, and a real issue that affected games, whether you believe it or not. That is why people talk about it.

Or because it was spring practice, and we silently hope that it won't be an issue yet again with a totally different center.
