Go back and re-watch Alabama and Florida from last year. If the only prep your d-line needs is to put their hands up, then we're going to have a problem. Glad he got a scholly, still doesnt need to play meaningful minutes in SEC games.

You're the 3rd poster to bring up Florida. Do you not remember he separated his shoulder in the 1st qtr and went back in the game?

No idea why folks have their panties in a wad over his performance on Saturday and who on here is saying he should get PT over JT?

He was obviously the correct choice over Beck and earned the start vs UAB.

He was leading Alabama at the half. He was injured against Florida and still found his way back in the game. Give the kid some fricking props instead of running him in the dirt. He’s better than the majority of our fans give him credit. Our defense looks good enough to finish a game and if we ever establish a run game,God have mercy.

This is where you and I disagree. If it was to simply get a W over UAB, then probably was the right choice. But IMO (and I am no Kirby Smart *see other thread), we should have let Beck start the game and get comfortable playing. Stetson has that experience coming in and starting against cupcakes and getting the W. But I think if Beck was prepped to start and started the game, he would have found his rhythm and been great too. Instead, you start Stetson, bring in Beck randomly and then fans compare the stats.
Is there seriously a doubt in anyones mind about the physical attributes of Beck or BVG over Stetson?

PS - for the 100th time, everyone agrees Stetson played well and is a DGD...but that doesnt beat Florida and Bama down the road, just saying

He deserves your respect and anyone who booed him needs to realize that they are horrible people with empty souls and low football IQ.

I agree, booing was not the right thing to do and does not represent the Bulldawg nation. However, I think Fields in fresh in the minds of people. And despite what people think, worrying about transfers IS a big deal right now...since they have a free transfer and can play immediately.

Comparing what Stetson did as a starter vs Beck did coming in during situations is not fair either.

1) Carson got 22 snaps. Maybe you can explain to me why getting snaps to start the game versus getting a good number of snaps matters.

Secondly, defenses dont want QBs comfortable. Bennett takes snaps in games without the practice reps that JT or Beck are getting. It doesnt seem like the coaching staff is too worried if he is comfortable with that or not.

Third, Carson got most of the reps Monday and Tuesday. He probably got most of the 1st team reps Wednesday. Again, the defense doesnt want him comfortable. A QB needs to find ways to be successful without excuses. Bama and Florida wont be making things easy on him.

what was random?
Kirby told them Thursday morning that Stet would get 2 series and then Beck would come in for 1. On Thursday. How much prepared could Beck be for this scenario?

A healthy Bennett wins. But i have doubts that his frame can take hits from those big bodies and hold up without damage that would effect his performance. But you know what? Daniels is the starter. Not Bennett. If Daniels goes down, then Bennett is the guy. And he is obviously a lot further along than Beck. If you think Beck is better than Stetson...?

We have a fantastic 2nd string QB who is mature, tested and can win SEC games. We should be celebrating this cat.

He obviously wasn't and it was proven on Saturday.

It's pretty much Kirby's philosophy about earning PT during practice week and it doesn't matter if you're a projected starter,5 star or someone who "needs the reps"

Was there serious doubt in anyone's mind about the physical attributes of Dwan Mathis over Stetson?

It comes down to who's the better QB and who gives us the best chance of winning.Not who looks the best in underwear and puts up the best combine numbers.

BTW,who the hell is saying Stetson is a better QB or a better option than JTD?

Mathis was recruited as a raw project and in direct response to Kirby's mismanagement of the Fromm/Fields situation.

Hopefully, we'll never see a Bennett situation once this guy finally goes on and becomes a high school football coach because HOPEFULLY, a top three program like UGA will from this point forward be signing one 5 star QB recruit per year...or perhaps a high 4 star in an off cycle.

A 5-10, low ceiling QB shouldn't even be allowed to sniff the practice fields at our facilities.

FWIW, I didn't hear any boos but I was closer to hearing the conference championship flags waving in the upper rows of 316.

A back up QB who jumped in and went 5-2 in SEC play including wins against 2 ranked teams? Didn’t even have the chance to warm up against lower tier teams? Kept us in the game against one of the best Alabama teams ever and got broken in the UF game and still went out and tried to help his team? And you want to somehow diminish what he has done for our team. frick you man. You are better than this.

Are you saying his performance vs Bama was fitting of a scrub walk on?

Some of these people are just dumb as frick. Stetson ties UGAs TD id a game record with half a games work.

We have been playing filler games for 100 years... Stet only needed a handfull of snaps and basically no practice reps. Not to mention very few attempts to do it.

frick off mouth breathers.

Stet is a legend.
