Young isn't much of an upgrade over Hooker despite being a better pro prospect. They're actually pretty on par. Check the stats and the QBR ratings. That said, BAMA has more players on offense and more importantly they don't lack depth and they won't have starting playmakers out.

Something like 35% of Hookers throws are at or behind the LOS and 30% of them are fades to the boundary per the last stats I saw.

He's very good at those things, which makes him a great fit for Tennessee's scheme, but Young's plate is much, much fuller in terms of throws he is forced to make and the fact that he is forced to make them in and out of the pocket and against massive amounts of pressure.

We also had a spotty OL and RB1 out. Too thin. BAMA does not have that issue.

We are down our #1, #2, #3 and #5 running backs, so we're not exactly in a good place there.

And our OL is spotty at the very best.
