Kirby has faced Saban 4 times and he’s only managed to score 21 points after halftime.


How many teams are scoring 21 against Bama in a half?

Also, we had 28 against Bama in the SECCG in 2018 3 mins into the 3rd quarter, and were rolling until Rodrigo missed a short FG.

I’m fine saying our offense needs to be better. They do. JT gives us the best chance to get there IMO. I just don’t understand why we’re using false or made up narratives to get us there.

Our defense was one of the best in history. We gave up 5(!!!!!) straight TD drives to Bama. With our talent on D, that’s absurd.

Do you think it’s entirely possible, we have less of a running threat because the defense has zero concern for JT scrambling? And moreso what I was trying to say is Bennett has gotten an offense going, but yes, JT definitely played great against Miss St last year.

Again, I want JT to start. I think he has more upside, and is a better player. I just think it’s not as obvious as whether to get a vaccine or not (note: this is only a joke for you, no one else on the board get mad at me for it )

No, stopping a qb scramble, which is an advantage Bennett has over JTD, is not as high up on the opponents priority list as stopping a downfield passer or a running back.

There’s more to the running game that Stet impacts than just him actually running the ball.

Not enough for it matter. I think you are greatly exaggerating the impact of his ability to scramble on our running backs.

It’s not just that. It’s LBs having to hold for just a split second longer on QB reads. I’ve said this for ages though so it’s not a new take for me.

When the QB is a complete statue (Fromm, JT) the defense has zero thought about the QB running. They’re always locked in on the RB.

Again, I want JT to start. I think he’s better. I just feel like we shite on Stetson too much when he had a really good year outside of 2 games. Yes, one of those games was important, but it’s not like he was horrendous (outside of 2 really bad throws). And I’ll criticize Stet when it’s warranted. He was AWFUL against Florida outside of 1 throw.

Our defense was the much bigger issue in that game.

I just don’t think opponents are worrying about a Stetson run as much as you think they are. It’s a distant third on the list at best.

I think a stronger argument can be made about an opponent worrying about a JTD pass downfield, which should open up the run game.

That’s 21 total points in the second half during 4 games(8 quarters) Saban practically shuts us out in the 2nd half of every game…

My bad.

Completely misread that. You’re absolutely right on that. 2nd half offense has been a train wreck against Bama in every outing so far.

we have seen him prove more than Bennett as a passer.


When? I mean, the last 4 weeks were against increidbly weak opponents. Bennett can torch incredibly weak opponents and has done exactly that.

Don't get me wrong. I want Daniels to be better. If he is I WANT him to start. I want the best QB in there. But honestly? We haven't seen Daniels do more than Bennett.
The defenses that Daniels played against were pretty bad, at best. He has played against one good defense Clemson.

Miss state when we had zero run game and were tied in the 4th.

Cincinnati when we faced an elite D and were down 11 in the 4th.

Clemson when we faced an elite D and he didn’t crumble with a terrible pick 6.

The team that went 3-7? They didn't go 3-7 because their offense was bad.

Hard to say about them honestly since we were missing 12 people.

The game in which we won 10-6 and we scored on a pick 6?
You want to sue that game to show that he is an excellent QB?

You want to prove that Daniels has shown he is an excellent QB based on wins against:

SCarolina 2-8
MState 3-7
Missouri 5-5
and an undefeated G5 team?

I mean, I can give you some better performances that Bennett has had against better teams, if you would like. Would that prove he is better than Daniels?

ETA
I might add that in the SCarolina game Daniels was 10/16 139 yards 2 TD and 1 INT.

Bruh… there are arguments to make for JT. The Clemson game is not one of them. He did have zero receiving help, was injured, and getting used to new people around him (including a new RG 2 plays into the season). But the defense deserves credit for that game, and then the running game closed it out.

After that killer pick 6 vs bama, Clemson becomes one of them. Props to JTD for not throwing a killer pick 6.
