Not a tough call. Bateman may start because Saban is Saban, but he is underwhelming and predictable. He can't consistently compete the deeper passes which will have tans stack the box and shut or offense down.

Hurts is our guy. Even Saban knows it judging by what he has been reported to say.

BTW, I don't even understand why anyone would want Bateman? Blows my mind.

This is a million percent wrong. You prevent stacking the box by formation OR having any kind of effective passing game. The deep ball only backs the safeties up. Stacking the box means selling out to stop the run. Bateman, or any other QB, could hit the short to intermediate stuff with a high completion percentage and no one will ever "stack the box".
