Driskel could end up being one of the best in the SEC


Dude has been good, no doubt. Still hesitant because I don't think he's played any decent defenses yet, but so far he looks legit.

Really what else can the guy do?

Just be patient. We'll thrust him in to the Heisman race next week. At that point they'll take notice.

Metttenburger looked poor tonight. He has a long way to go. Driskel has come through for his team along with Shaw leaps and bounds better than Mettenburger. Right now, Mett's stock is plummeting.

Sorry but this is just silly.

You and Andre Ware are heaping praise on Driskel for throwing for 200 yards, 1 TD and 1 INT against the worst team in the SEC...in front of the home crowd...where the outcome was never in question during the whole game and no pressure was or adversity was faced.

Meanwhile, You say Berger's is "plummeting" because he threw for 170 yards, 0 TD and 0 INT against a motivated SEC team better than Kentucky...on the road in front of a hostile SEC crowd...where we had to come from behind in the second half and knew his blindside was wide open just about every play.

Driskel's done this twice already... except for that whole blindside thing, but our o-line is not very good either. Guys are whiffing blocks like every other play. Gotta get that fixed for the LSU game.

No INT's but Mett did put the ball on the ground, fact is Mett just didn't look that good. I mean ULM and State both put up more points against Auburns D so we know it isn't that good.

Don't get me wrong...you have to like how Driskel is progressing if you are a Gator fan.

I just don't see Berger "plummeting."

LT could be our Achilles heel this year. Dworaczyk is one of Les' favorites so he won't make a change. He has been a concern all year and tonight he was downright awful.

Mett is not even the best in the state. That ULM kid is better than Mett. Auburn exposed your offense tonight, and they haven't stopped a team in years.

The difference between your current post and you sucking his dick is a fumble on the 3-yard line and 2 dropped td longballs.

I guess this will be confirmed when Browning gets drafted higher than Berger. As for exposed, Meh, I'll need to see it again to believe it.

I do think our LT was exposed however.

Well the years part was dumb but that really was a poor showing by yalls O, especially after we have seen its not hard to score on Auburn.

And what has auburn been saying for the last few years?

"The defense sux. Roof has to go. We can't stop anybody."

Auburn defense played well, Mett looked fine in his first road game. He will make significant progress going forward. Thanks for your concern or your flame. Whatever that was.

JD has one INT and I have seen many truly terrible decisions at all. With the WRs we have he's actually doing better than expexted.

The one INT was in the end zone so it was basically just a punt.

I'll take JD over Mett right now for the running dimension and JD's bigger arm.
