Did he bad throwing the game-winning TD in the Outback Bowl against Michigan? Here's the clip to jog your memory. He actually went 7-10 for 117 yards and 2 TDs against the #5 passing Defense in the country.
He wasn't horrible at all this year in any game. He threw for 222 yards against Mizzou in just over a half. If you're comparing him to the best QB in South Carolina history (Shaw), sure he won't stack up. But he'll improve throughout the offseason with some competition knowing he should be the starter next year.
Let's just say, we'll have a pretty good darn qb next year if they're able to beat out DT.

UGA loses Murray, Lynch & some OL
Mizz losses half their D, QB, WR
VU loses every play maker on offense(Krause,Matthews, ACS) and the entire secondary
SCAR loses Shaw, Quarles, Clowney, A WR & S or CB?
UF breaking in a new Offense and Boom on the hot seat
UK still needs a few more recruiting classes
UT loses entire OL and DL
East is up for grabs next year. I think a healthy UGA or USC take it though

In 2014 UF will roar back after having a devastating 2013 worth of injuries. SEC wont be that lucky this year.
Driskel will only be a junior and will show why he was elite qb out of high school. We have rb Kelvin Taylor who played as true frosh and now has command of the playbook and schemes....he will be hungry for the ball and will pound inside the tackles. Wrs will be good..Ahmad Fulwood started to break out late last year as true frosh and he and Dunlap will be very good targets..and we may sign JUCO wr...OL will be very good for the first six and depth becomes issue if we suffer injury. Defense will be stout again. Schedule? I like it...Bama, UGA & LSU break in new qbs and the the SEC is unkind to them. We play LSU, Mizzou, USC & UK at home...plus UGA in the annual WLOCP with their new qb. I like our chances.
Mizzou is going to feel defensive losses and will have to outscore folks...not good. UGA will be average imo until qb situation has experience (and hopefully no more UGA and NC chances being spouted by ESPN), UT is scarey and we could lose on the road there...just depends on their OL and who is left + defense, USC will have a slight dropoff on defense and that will cost them chance to go to Hotlanta.

East was wild this year, so much more unpredictable than the west.

Kentucky has it's best ever recruiting class coming in, and might add a couple of other highly rated players.
With that said, I don't expect this next season to be much better as all of the quality players will be freshman/sophomores. I expect improvement, but getting enough wins for a bowl will be a challenge.

People are insane if you think Mizzou will be hurting on defense. Markus Golden and Shane Ray are back at DE, Brantley and Augusta are both Freshman DT's this year. They will get better. Our LB's will be faster next year, Beisel is a faster version of Andrew Wilson and Newsome has 4.5 speed. We lose one of our weak links in Safety Matt White…..Duron Singleton will be a big time player next year. We will have some youth…..but have heard a lot of great stuff about them as well.

Therein is your problem....youth on defense. Mizzou struggled some on defense this year coming down the stretch and had to try and outscore everyone. Matty is good qb and he will keep Mizzou in games..plus you have good receivers obviously...is Washington gone? DGB cant leave til next year I think...and he is a beast..but I don't see another east title this year. Mizzou struggled at times getting run game going when Josey was out.

If you're doing the what if game it changes the dynamics completely. UT just grabbed 2 elite WR in Pearson and Malone, 1 elite RB in Hurd, 2 of the top 5 incoming TEs in the SEC and a loaded secondary and DLine class to go along with all the guys that got red-shirted this year. They might all be great but they're young and unproven so it's hard to say what happens. Going off what everybody knows, I don't think it's insane, at this point in time, to say Mizz could take a step back on D. That's how I look at it atleast

Conventional wisdom says that Markus Golden is gonna declare for the draft
Posted on 1/5/14 at 1:34 am to Mizzoumatt
Who all is actually declaring or graduating from your camp now that the season is over?

I think Tennessee makes a comeback next year but falls short to a two loss USCe
.
Please provide your rationale for Tennessee being #2. I would really like to hear it.
For starters, they had UGA beat this year if not for a fluke fumble through the end zone. They beat USCe. And honestly, i just think its time for them to step the hell up...

1. South Carolina-I believe most prognosticators will pick them somewhere top 3 in east
We'll be pretty good in '14, but the schedule will be tougher than '13's.
We return 19 of 22 on the offensive 2 Deep. We have a QB coming back that has beaten 3 ranked teams on the road and one of the best RB's in the conf.
We have 17 of 22 coming back on the defensive 2 Deep. We lose 3 starting DL, and both CB's. The biggest Question ?'s on the team are how the DE's and CB's are going to perform in '14. We have a FR All SEC/FR All American OLB returning and we are loaded at DT. We also have a lot of serious talent coming in at DE.
Spec Teams were not a highlight from last year, but we do have a FR All SEC Place Kicker coming back
We have 2 tough SECw games, we need to win atleast 1 of them to have a shot in the SECe division championship. We will play a ranked OOC ACC team. Also the bye week before UF will help.

I think the SEC East will be one of the most exciting divisions in all of college football next season. With the departures of McCarron, Manziel, and Mettenberger, I expect the East to be stronger than the West for the first time in a while, and I believe the East champ will win in Atlanta. As a UGA fan, I believe that we have all of the pieces to win it all next year as long as Hutson Mason can play smart football and NOT lose games for us; however, this is UGA we are talking about and there is no telling what could hold us back (injuries, suspensions, Todd Grantham etc.). We have two huge road games against Mizzou and SC, and that little game in Jacksonville against UF. We will have to hold serve at home and win 2/3 of these games to win the East in my opinion. This will be a tall task as we will have to beat Auburn at home as they are always one of our SEC West opponents. UT, UF, Mizzou, and SC are all going to be very good football teams next year, and I can't wait to see how it all unfolds.

I fully expect SC to run away with it this year. UGA will once again be mediocre on Defense and held back by boneheadedness on Offense. CTG will get fired, set our program back another year, and 2016 will be the year of the dog. CMR rides into the sunset after another new years day catastrophe.

Interesting thread ... it'll be cool to revisit this after signing day and after spring camp.
Posted on 1/5/14 at 10:45 am to Miz-Stl
I'm pretty confident that if we win one of our two difficult road games (@ USCe and @ Mizzou), then we'll win the East. I'd almost rather it be Mizzou given that USCe has shown repeatedly that they'll drop one they shouldn't.
