OKST is up 52-0 on Murray State near the end of the third and just got another takeaway.

Yes, I know it is an FCS school, but it's good to see the Pokes not come out flat after the big win last week, especially considering the Pokes have struggled even against FCS teams over the past two years. The backups are playing with intensity, too.

I don't want to turn this into a Gunner hate thread....and I'm not even trying to hate ok Gunner but watching Chambliss, Kamario Taylor, Curtis, Russel, and now Philo....from a pure QB talent level I think we have a bottom half of the league QB

No gunner makes up for some of it with gritt and toughness but idk man...defense and running game going to have to carry us this year again. And I don't like our chances on defense against some of these dudes.

Alright. Let’s just hope someone makes Buster Faulkner an offer to be head coach.

Because Florida is rolling

We’ll just have to see what happens when we need him to press. Luckily we haven’t had too thus far. I mean today, if they’re giving you 7 yds per carry and wide open, green grass take it.

When a team decides to sell out to stop the run we’ll see.

Gunner had the best QBR in the country against ranked teams last season.

Gunner had one of the best fourth quarter QBRs in college football history last season (189). He was 56-67 for 567 yards with 7 touchdowns and 0 intersceptions in the fourth quarter last year. Fernando Mendoza led the nation in total QBR last season (182).

He finished seventh in the Heisman as a first year starter.

The lack of faith in Gunner that so many Dawg fans seem to have is dumbfounding to me. It's like frigging Stetson Bennet all over again smh.

Truth. Nobody has bled for UGA more than Gunner since SBIV.

At the end of 3 quarters of play, OU has scored twice on New Mexico.

I'm much more concerned about OM in Nov than I was previously, and I'm much less worried about OU next week than at the beginning of the season.

That's fine but if you watch Gunner you can just tell he's not at the level of these guys. The short passes and no turnovers help the QBR numbers I'm sure.

I was a stet believer and stet was different. He was much more gunslinger and let it rip than Gunner and had the arm talent.

Again I'm not trying to hate on Gunner. I think we can win a lot of games and already have with him, but the margin of error is just much smaller with Gunner.

Gunner did have that great stretch last year. The MSU and first Ole miss game were great. Texas too. But then he just fell off a cliff and hasn't really looked like that since.

This is where having so many awesome TEs helps. If we run all four of them out there with Frazier, it puts the defense in a serious bind. If they put a nickel package out there, we could line up and run power football right at them. If they line up with run prevent personnel, we could spread the field and find matchups in the passing game.

I'm guessing we have some stuff like this in the playbook that we haven't shown yet because we haven't needed to.

The timing of knocking Gunner Stockton after 3 straight games with 40+ points is ironic to me.

Yeah if you didn't have the capacity to consider the competition it probably would seem ironic to you

So you are used to 40 points in a half?

Even against bad competition, the level of efficiency is stupid good.

Gunner is the most underappreciated player in all of college football.

Yeah the offense has played well and scored points. That's not really the point.

Nothing I have seen has shown me that Gunner has improved in the areas he struggled with last year.

He squared up and threw some nice balls in the 2nd half. It seems it takes him a little while to get going.

He seems much more in command of the offense.

CKS said in his presser that Gunner checked out of some shots because of what the D was showing. He’s trying to win games…not get on a highlight reel.

Funny how for years everyone wanted a dual threat QB. Gunner goes for 100 today and now they want Tom Brady

When the picture is clear he can let it rip. His anticipation is poor/ he is scared to make a mistake ino

He still bails on clean pockets to early or checks down before deeper routes can develop

I haven't seen the improvement of keeping his eyes down field when out of the pocket...granted he hasn't really played much

Gunner Stocton finished 7th in the Heisman last year as a first year starter. If Gunner in the bottom half of SEC quarterbacks this season, that means he's at best the 8th best quarterback in the league. How does that compute?

Comparing him to Aaron fricking Philo, let alone putting him below Aaron Philo, is insace.
