Zow didn't start Saturday for the first time all season because the coaches decided he was the right man at the right time. He started because the injured Tyler Watts couldn't. Not exactly a ringing endorsement.

As Franchione said, "It wasn't a choice."

What about the three seasons he was the starter before Fran came in and went to an option offense? Guess you don't remember him whooping Auburn's arse in '98 and '99, too? Winning an SEC title? Educate your backwards arse, itat..

While the ITAT and NtY spiel from allin gets old, at least be accurate in your response. Zow started most of 1998, but the starts were split in 1999. Watts was the starter when Alabama finished strong late in that season. Zow was injured agianst Tennessee. The 2000 season was lost all-around, with neither really accomplishing anything. Watts was hurt early in 2001, with Zow getting Alabama to a bowl that season.

I don't think Zow has ever gotten the recognition he deserved. He finished his career as Alabama's all-time passing leader (since broken). He also dealth with OC and head coaching changes on the regular. But I guess the same can be said for Watts' career as well.
