    Looks like FLA is going to start a true freshman Driskel in Saturday's game. What do you think the chances are that the Gators' starting Quarterback finishes the game? 30%?

    The kid is good, he's just green. Now and then a green kid comes in and gets the job done.

    No doubt. But to finish the game, he has to get the job done, and keep his head attached to his torso.

    Interesting O/U. I believe that we will go after him pretty aggressively. So, the question becomes, how tough is he (mentally and physically)?

    Well we have had 2 out of 5 opposing coaches bench their starting QB.

    I wouldn’t be surprised if JD is not getting the job done and Florida only has 100 total yards at the end of the 3rd to see another backup due to the #1 being benched.

    I have a quirky feeling about Saturday and think that Florida is going to come with some thunder into BR

    Hey PA, where in eastern PA do you live. I used to live outside of Philly.

    this kid was the #1 QB in the nation last year.
    Dont underestimate him at all.
    Plus Weiss is a smart guy, he is not going to have him sit back there and make reads etc etc.
    They are going to get the ball out of his hands quickly, and not ask him to force things.
    Also WVU handed all opposing coaches a blueprint on how to move the ball on LSU.
    Quick underneath passes, slants etc. Get the ball quickly to your playmakers and let them make plays in space....

    If a true freshman can get the timing and accuracy down to make that kind of passing attack work in our house, on only a week's worth of first team snaps, then we should hand this kid the Heisman.

    Real surprised that they moved Burton completely to H-back. He'll be back at QB this week.
