I tried to watch him against Georgia and man it was just bad. But I guess Georgia is making every offense look bad now days

He's not good. He has talent, but he's terrified of contact and is routinely throwing off his back foot.

His OC is functionally retarded, but Rattler is very, very damaged.

Rattler was dog shite even with Lincoln Riley as his coach and in a weak B12.

Yeah I never understood that. He got benched at Oklahoma. Not sure why anyone thought he would do better in a league with better defenses.

I pointed this out before the season and some OK posters argued with me that it was Riley’s fault, that he was sabotaging Rattler so Williams could take his job. Crazy stuff.

Riley did a number on him. Riley's first QB commit, Stoops got Baker and Kyler... Spencer had a flashy frosh season, got the Heisman hype and seemingly quit working. Happy feet, can't read a defense, and remarkable unathletic.
I was hoping he could turn it around with SC....

This has been our experience.

Seems he's gotten by on talent more than he's ever really been coached. He has made some awful reads, and he's forced stuff where it isn't necessary or possible.

Its just so odd. It's obvious he is shell shocked. His frosh year he let it rip and was showed a lot of signs.

Don’t worry. The Rec will find a way to fix the SEC title game and Bama will put another 40 point on the dawgs to make sure they both get in the playoff. The payoff to the playoff. It’s a perfect marriage

He can not read a defense to save his life just like JG for Tennessee used to be. Has physical talent, nothing else.

That's a pretty dadgum good comparison. Rattler has the best arm, and best touch, I've seen from an SC QB.

But if his first read isn't open, and it rarely is, he's kinda dead in the water. And his propensity to throw off his back foot is horrible.

Too many to name were saying he was a candidate at the very least

Probably the same IDIOT that said A&M would win the National championship... Rattler wasn't that good at OK.

Joey Galloway normally has some level headed takes on college ball, but he said A&M isn’t out of it, even with a loss. That’s some funny shite right there

Is he still trying to hit the long ball if his first read isn't open? He does have a terrible habit of throwing off his back foot.

Exactly. He was barely getting by Big 12 defenses all the while the Media is sucking him off like the next coming of Elway. Then he gets BENCHED and the media still somehow keeps up the narrative that he's an elite QB. I don't know who he's got dirt on but it's some good shite.

Rattler is fine if you put him behind a good offensive line.

Not superstar level, but he can play you winning football.

South Carolina doesn't provide him enough protection to allow him to play at that level.

As long as he is your QB behind that line, be prepared to see him running to his right whether he needs to or not.
