    I wouldn't call our defense dominant. It's pretty good, but I'd say that it's questionable whether they can hold up against playoff teams if our offense is languishing for several quarters. Arkansas was marching down the field until they fumbled and doing it both passing and running. But hopefully they will continue to improve and peak down the stretch. They are certainly playing well enough for us to win if our offense gets better. And to do that, Quinn simply HAS to do better than he has been. And maybe he will.

    I've not really been arguing Arch should be the starter so much as counterbalancing what I take to be unchallenged assertions by Quinn advocates. It's a legitimate discussion to be had because the answer as to who should be the starter since the first half of Georgia wasn't straightforward at all. For sure, if a switch to Arch were to be made, it would have been far better to have done so in that game and stick with it to allow him to develop and be ready for the final stretch. It's a much dicier situation at this juncture. As you say, and as I have posted several weeks ago, the decision isn't ours to make anyways.

    Why don't you try reading my posts on the subject just a few above yours. As for beating Quinn out in practice, this isn't a fall camp competition situation. And Quinn doesn't have to worry about contact in practice. Football games are played full contact, not 7 on 7. I don't need to prove to you that your statement was ridiculous. It was and you can accept that or not.

    What a ridiculous statement. Nothing wrong with arguing Quinn should be the starter, but you need to be a little more convincing with your argument counselor ...

    And by the same token, had Arch been playing since Georgia, he would have been developing, and he'd be better prepared by now. Likewise, it assumes he hasn't developed any simply from practicing and the passage of time since then. The whole crux of this matter is Quinn's poor performance.
  6. sith_horn
    Ah, my mistake. My point stands however.
  7. sith_horn
    I'm picking your quote here to chime in on, but my statement applies to other posters here as well. Arch was inserted into a very intense game cold without having repped with the ones as the game's presumed starter. OK, such is the life of the backup. And obviously, he is a work in progress. But you cannot say with certainty that he would have played the rest of the game exactly as his first few possessions leading into halftime had Sark chosen to keep him in the game coming out of it. That is pure speculation being asserted by many of you. He may well have adjusted, settled in and found his sea legs so to speak. Or possibly not. But don't pretend like it's a given that he wouldn't of and possibly made a better game of it. He's a competitor, Sark would have been coaching him and his ability to extend plays are pluses that can't be so easily discounted.

    Was pulling for Cook to develop. Too bad he didn't get after it the way Moore did. The picture sure changed for those two.

    I think the crux of the matter is poise and let's just omit the word pocket. It's not where it should be in year three. Pointing this out isn't shitting on Quinn and yes this overall game was great for us, but the concern is legitimate against better teams who can bring greater pressure and whose offenses can put us in a hole while ours languishes. Hopefully, this game helped to right his rudder going forward. Likewise, the OL needs to get better. We have some dudes with high ratings that get discombobulated too often in pass pro. Namely, Williams and Campbell.

    No. Georgia isn't either. But that doesn't stop some sports writers and commentators from referring to them as such.

    Nice drive.

    He showed he's a good inside runner early on this season. He just needs to continue developing his pass and ball protection.
  14. sith_horn
    So long as he learns to protect the ball. He needs to put in some serious work on that. Stan Drayton was much better at coaching ball protection than Tashard Choice.
  15. sith_horn
    Should be a first down.
  16. sith_horn
    Followed by a fumble ... fortunately recovered.
  17. sith_horn
    Bryant, Mitchell and Norton.

    Good play by Taaffe
  19. sith_horn
    Sydir in again.
  20. sith_horn
    They Have good RBs They've also had some good holes to work with.

    He's great when he makes the right play, but he's boneheaded with poor run fits. He often shoots the wrong gap and get's needlessly tied up with OL and gives up runs. Leona Lefau has developed and makes smart plays.
  22. sith_horn
    A total shut out would be embarassing too and let's be real. Florida has no chance at this point to make a comeback. Napier picked his poison and will hope to get more on the board in time remaining.
  23. sith_horn
    Broughton in.
  24. sith_horn
    Sydir on the field.
  25. sith_horn
    Chance to see Goosby play and whether he can settle in/adjust with live snaps. Good opportunity for development here.
