65 pass attempts. 0 interceptions.

I hope he's our starter for the rest of the season.

I take back everything I said about him earlier in the season. It's like a Crompton turn around.

Worley has been tough. He answered the challenge and I respect the hell out of him for it. A few weeks ago everybody doubted him. He bounced back and is proving to be a leader. I love seeing stuff like this.

I was thinking after he stoved his thumb on a SCe helmet that we should inflict some pain before every game. His accuracy improved greatly after the injury.

Just think, he's still getting comfortable. This is not the top of offense he's used to. If he stays and gives the guys behind him time to develop, it will do wonders for us.

I thought he was never going to "get it". He may not play well always, but he sure proved me wrong! Great game! GBO!

He should have an awesome senior year at the rate he's progressing now. I wouldn't be surprised if we come out on top of the East next year. I just dont see a huge dropoff like some, especially with the recruits we have coming in, mainly the JUCO's.

Worley still has a lot of improving to do. The win had little to do with Worley's performance. Without drastic improvement, I don't see him as our qb next year. Wouldn't mind if he is but he has a lot to work on. We won in spite of Worley IMO.

I liked the effort he made on the long 3rd down when he ran.He didn't slide or just run out of bounds.Took a good hit trying to get the 1st down.

I definitely was very critical of him earlier this year. The kid has shown great heart and is a great leader for this team. He has made some really tough throws the past two weeks.

Worley needs be the the QB next year to.Hopefully he doesn't get hurt this year and UT gets to RS the 2 FR. Worley starts next year and the team improves more.Then 1 of the 2 FR will be a RS SO. and have 3 years in Coach Jones system and should be good to go.

I think his flaw was confidence. He threw some good throws vs GA and that carried over

we still need a dual threat qb who can run the read option or this offense will never be our strength

Disagree. I think worley is our best option next year as well. More runs will be sprinkled in and yes the offense would undoubtedly be more potent with a manziel type player. But we are in a transition stage and while butch gets his talent together we need a guy like worley who protects the football an plays generally mistake free. Btw he's startin to make some damn good throws and I was impressed with his early third down run that didn't quite get it.

Ps. I still maintain that had worley started florida we win that game. That transfers to us beating the bulldogs. Obviously we still take usc. So all you football gods that just knew we needed a qb change. . . Just spend some time thinking about what could have been.

Pps. I'm still ecstatic for the win but mostly I'm just so happy for our older guys. So glad they got to be the ones to set the foundation. I won't forget.

It would be nice but I don't see it happening. His passing ability is below average and his running ability is below average. All 3 of the other qb' have a higher upside than Worley IMO. Worley had experience and that's the only reason he's playing this year, next year all the back ups will have a better grasp of the system.

Worley still has major accuracy issues.

If he was on target more yesterday, we would have won the game comfortably.

Like it or not, this is a correct statement. I respect Worley's toughness and believe he's doing the best he can. I also trust CBJ when he says RF and JD aren't ready yet, so Worley is it for now. But, the offense will take a big leap forward when we put the option in the read option.

This...

But also the receiver corps needs to be careful about catching good passes as well. North and Pig are beasts, but the remainder of the guys need to get a little better as well.

Nothing equates to in-game experience and comeback sec wins especially. Start worley again next year and let everyone get comfortable. All of our playmakers will be here in two years with a few exceptions. Add in the recruiting classes that will form our base going forward... watch out sec when an intelligent, prepared, dual threat qb takes the helm

Worley is growing, and I couldn't be happier for the kid and the state of this program. However, he still has a lot more growing to do. He's still throwing into double and triple coverage when other wide outs are open.

Also, he is too locked in on the play to adjust at times. For example, we had a bobbled snap on a pass-to-right-sideline play to Neil that ate an additional 1-1.5 seconds. Worley passed to Neil anyway even though Clowney was was already on top Neil - it nearly got Neil injured. QB needs to be able to read pressure on his intended Receiver a all times.

But, he's growing and improving.
