Officially going with the two QB system (barring injury precluding Driskel from contact).

Gators, quarterbacks: Will Muschamp says Jacoby Brissett, Jeff Driskel will share Gators' starting quarterback job - Orlando Sentinel


Muschamp says its because we can win with both of them in there. Uh huh. Sure.

I read that to mean he doesn't have confidence in either one. Even if you have two QBs who are outstanding, you still pick one, imo.

Awesome.

Two QB's is never a good thing.

Leak was the starter. Tebow just played short yardage. If you have 2 starting qbs, you have none.

Really. I had no clue Leak was the starter. C'mon dude that cliche is old. 2 qb systems are not always successful but UF has had more than their share of success utilizing multiple qb's. One of our better years in this past decade was with Ainge and Schaeffer. Spurrier did it multiple times in his career.

I don't know why coaches go with a 2 QB system. It works about 1 in 10 times (Gotta throw a bone to Spurrier here). Just go with one QB for a game and see how he does. If he's awful start the other one the next game.

I could argue that a 1 qb system fails exponentially more often than a 2 qb system.

And for those teams, if they used two, the second would suck

Most of the time you are right. Another reason I liked Kiffin. He was stubborn with not sitting Crompton and eventually the kids confidence grew enough to be serviceable.

FTR. Crompton was not very good. I think Kiffin played him because he was a senior and used it as a recruiting ploy. JMO.

If the D and talent can live up, UF will be better than advertised. I like them better than SCe.

You can't do it in this league with just a defense. We tried that in 05. They'll be lucky to win 8 games.

Tell that to 2005 Alabama. They won 10 games with no offense whatsoever.

That being said, I'm not worried about two QB's. UF has had a lot of luck with 2 QB's in the last 2 decades.

Now if they both suck, obviously, two or one, it doesn't really matter. Time will tell. I think the doom and gloom about Florida is slightly exaggerated right now.

We'll see. History isn't on your side. Only one coach has ever made that work and he coaches in South Carolina now. Florida will have to run the ball or it's going to be a long season for them.

...I'm not sure how you're fitting Spurrier into what he was talking about here...I mean he didn't really run a two QB system at UF (nor defense only scheme)

He ran Doug Johnson and Jesse Palmer out there all season long in 2000. You should read a little more then respond. He says they had success with a two qb system in the past. Only one guy ran anything like that , and it was Spurrier.
