Time to eat some crow.

Nothing like crow for dinner. I couldn't have been more wrong:
1.) Blake can stretch the field vertically, horizontally, in the middle, flat, wherever he wants.
2.) Blake maintained his composure even when he made some big mistakes. I thought he'd fall apart after the fumble or the interception. Cool as a cucumber.
3.) Blake has shown a lot more command of the offense. Very impressed.
Anything else I missed?

We are much better with a mobile QB...You know how many sacks AJ probably would've gave up in these first 4 games...

Just one game at a time, one at a time

Over 600 yards against that D. Just fix the turnovers and I'll take that anytime. RTR

Blake is a beast.
Coop is a Heisman contender.
All three of our backs are incredibly dangerous. Drake had an 87 yard catch, Henry had a 29 yard catch, Yeldon had a 37 yard catch.
White is a really solid #2 WR.
Cam Robinson is a beast.
And UF's D isn't bad. Bama's O just was too good. This is a top 5 O right now, at worst.

I was very, very, very wrong.

The biggest thing this game was how C-Rob played.
He has a sack allowed though. Because Sims held the ball for a long time without knowing what was behind him. We have a true freshman LT and you would never know it.

I doubted him too. I couldn't be happier to all of the crow.

One more thing. I've been vehemently opposed to the idea of having four quarterbacks in just as many years: McCarron, Sims, Coker, 2016 quarterback. I'm not so sure that would be a bad thing anymore. Coker has started to progress and didn't make the dumb mistakes he made before. The pass to Coop was beautiful. If he continues to progress, which I think he will under Kiffin, I don't see any reason that he shouldn't be the next qb (assuming he can fend off the younger ones).
Of course there will be a good qb battle next year, but I think an additional year under Kiffin to bring along the younger quarterbacks may not be such a bad thing.

Its easy to see how bad that could have been with all the mistakes.....but to overcome them all and pour it on like they did. WoW is about all I can think now.

Good on you to own it.
Where is teague? ww? The others who were heavily in support of Coker.

I still think Coker is good, really good. But Sims is just better. I think Coker will probably be our quarterback next year IF (big IF) he continues to progress the way he has within the past few games.

Sounded like even Lane didn't think Blake could be the guy. I didnt know either way but I think we can go all the way with BS as our QB!!!

I was #teamSims since the spring, but he's far outplayed my expectations.

You know who is a beast...Jaren Reed. He will be one and done.

Dear Blake,
I take it back. I do. I offer a complete and utter retraction regarding the Alabama qb situation. The imputation of your play was totally without basis in fact, and was in no way fair comment, and was motivated purely by blind support for Jacob Coker, and I deeply regret any distress that my comments may have caused you, your family, or the team, and I hereby undertake not to repeat any such slander at any time in the future.
Sincerely,
Tiderider

I'm checking in to eat crow as well. Blake is a hell of damn QB. Glad he proved me wrong!
