hurts was the SEC OPOY last year....the guy has to be doing something right,right?
Yeah there would t be any bias reasons for that I'm sure.
They went to the championship. He was a freshmen. The committee didn't have anyone else to give it to with a better "resume". Problem with this is, Hurts had little to nothing to do with getting Bama to the championship. (Here comes all the Gumpers to talk about how I'm so wrong on this) but the fact is, you could have put any QB from the SEC last year (Etling included) and Bama would have still made the championship game. Hurts did not make that team last year what it was.

That's just dumb

Again, just dumb
Why do people on this site start with what is a decent, reasonable argument and then completely slam their faces into a wall?
Reasonable argument - Other players were better than Hurts and 4-5 SEC QBs would have had similar or better stats than Hurts if playing at Alabama. Dobbs, Fitzgerald, Bentley, Patterson and Allen could have also produced good seasons with that roster.
Unreasonable argument - Hurts did nothing, Alabama won 14 games in spite of him, any SEC QB could have done it

It's mind-boggling how many of our fans can't comprehend this. They point to specific plays as though they are proof. Every player on the team made plays, most of them at a higher rate, relative to their positions, than Hurts.
