That’s what everyone said about AR too and guess what we saw? He wasn’t fricking ready. Pretty simple.


Do what?

AR has no where near the proven resume in starting games vs SEC opponents and bowl game last year.

Not that simple at all.

I really think the coaches are trying to let JT get really healthy for the stretch run. Anything they are saying publicly is just head games for the opposition.

Bennett had more rushing yards than AR15 too.

Amazing how if a fan appreciates all Stet is done but is of the opinion JT is the better option they are immediately labeled a hater by some. This is followed a demand to offer stats to back up your opinion in an attempt to create a message board throw down. It's just an opinion, has nothing to do with who will play or how they perform.

Based on what? Your feelings? What have you seen this year from JT Daniels that leads you to believe he is better than what Stetson Bennett has done this year?

The thing is, everyone wants to say that Daniels is better than Bennet based on what happend last year.

Look I’ve been in the Stetson camp all year but he threw two interceptions and had a batted pass yesterday. The defense won that game. I want to at least see JT play, we are going to need his vertical passing ability if we have to score a lot of points against bama or Ohio state or OU.

My point was the fans were convinced that he should be playin instead of Jones … rather than assuming the coaches actually knew what they were doing.

This argument is a little ridiculous to be honest. Can we all just agree that we have an abundance of riches at QB right now? We're in uncharted territory as a program at QB and it's like we don't know how to act. BOTH QBs have extreme upsides. JT has a better deep game and seems to have a higher FB IQ but he cannot extend plays like SBIV can. Some of you seem to be biased against SBIV because he has the term "walk on" attached to his resume and he is not as tall as the prototype elite QB.

We're splitting hairs here. Stetson is also doing what he's doing without an elite target in Pickens who was a go-to for JT last year.

Can we stop this ridiculous bickering and appreciate both QBs? This is getting old...Good Lord.

His two interceptions were punts that pinned the offense inside their own 5.

He had one batted ball.

He also had 2 huge runs that sustained drives that JT Daniels wouldn't have made and we would have punted.

He also threw a perfect pass nearly 50 yards down the field for a touchdown.

Bennett played fine.

We were really lucky that Dan mullens players have no discipline or that landslide performance by the defense may not have happened had he not tried to bring it out of the end zone. Stetson had some great runs yesterday but you can’t be throwing two picks against bama with only 3 points on the board. Florida sucks and we broke them yesterday. They’ll lose one or two more.

Dude, the picks were on third down practically in the end zone. The result of those two interceptions was most likely better than had they been incomplete and we punted.

You act like he was throwing interceptions over the middle of the field all day.

HOLY shite ARE YOU DEFENDING INTERCEPTIONS?
“Oh they were basically punts”
So you think stet is so good that he threw the interceptions and trusted the D to get the ball back to give us better field position?

Uhm. Yes, I'm defending them. If the passes weren't intercepted we would have been punting the ball. So the result is the same (or even better than a touch back) yet we took shots at the endzone. You clearly don't understand game.

His TD to INT ratio is still 3-1 which isn't that bad when you look around college football. It's actually pretty good. QB's have bad games sometimes. and one of those INT's was so bad that I have to wonder if it was some miscommunication, perhaps the throw went exactly where he wanted it, but the receiver wasn't on the same page. We'll never know, so it's not worth arguing about. An INT is an INT.

But I still agree that JT needs some reps. And if not JT, then get Vandagriff in there for some reps. On the last two drives, I saw lots of new faces in there on offense and defense, but not QB.

I mean I get that Kirby told us he was ready to throw Mullen and Florida fans off but obviously he is not the question is when will he be?

Coming from the guy who thinks that Stetson is strategically throwing interceptions this doesn’t mean much to me.

I didn't say he strategically threw the interceptions. I said they were the same as a punt and pinned them inside their own 10. Obviously, completing the passes would have been better but the two interceptions didn't hurt us. We would have been punting the very next play and they resulted in Florida having the same field position as a punt, if not worse since they were both inside the 10.


Sorry you cannot comprehend the game of football.

Both throws on the interceptions seemed to be really off target and bad reads. The first one almost looked like Stet thought the TE was going to be upfield faster on the out and up. He never got the defensive guys back turned. The second one I want to look at again, but not sure what he was thinking. They ended up working strategically, but not something you do on purpose obviously. The dime Stet through on the 9 route to #10 was pretty much a dagger shot and shows you the kid is accurate with the deep ball.

The second one was on the far side of the field from where I was sitting. The first one was right in front of me. It was badly under thrown into double coverage but you don't mind taking that shot down the field because worse case scenario, they get the ball inside the 10. Which is what happened. Florida would have been better off knocking the passes down and forcing us to punt. They weren't costly turnovers and didn't have a big impact on the game. The result was the same as an incompletion followed by an excellent punt.
