re: Who are your preseason top 5 SEC QBs?

For all the shite we give the big 12.......you boys are ranking a Big 12 reject pretty high......

1. Jalen hurts/ blake barnett
2. Jalen hurts/ blake barnett
3-whatever. Who gives a shite?

Bateman has a noodle arm and will turn it over too much. He's still 3rd best in sec though.

Arm strength isn't everything look at what Greg McElroy did at Bama
Bateman didn't play good last year but one thing Saban does is develope talent and they improve every year.
I bet Bateman starts against USC.
Aj McCarron didn't have a cannon either.

There are better quarterbacks in this league than people think. And our teams recruit the position well. So just because they are new faces doesn't mean they aren't good, which has been the leagues rep.

Statistically speaking I'll go with
1. Kelly
2. Knight
3. Allen
4. Del Rio
5. Dobbs

Mostly because of the offenses they play in.

If Austin Allen ends up statistically 3rd in the conference then we will challenge for the West

Lots of if's there

Your QB last year was second.

Nobody in the conference can make the throws Eason can

Look, I think Eason will be the best QB in the SEC eventually, but he hasn't played a down in the SEC yet.

Pump the brakes.

True...gotta beat teams we are suppose to beat. Schedule is nice and Defense will be better

I think Dobbs is solidly second. After him it really does become a almost no mans land of starters. Knight has shown flashes but was also benched. Harris was a weakness for his team last year. Bama doesn't even have a QB yet. Del Rio is wildly unproven. Allen has a good pedigree but hasn't shown anything for himself. Eason is obviously very naturally talented but he's a true freshman walking into the toughest defensive conference in CFB. I'm not ready to anoint him based off high school or a spring game.
