I will take a wait and see approach as to who I want to start, but had to vote for Worley, He will be a Junior and seems like people forgot he was Gatorade player of the year, (Was he not?)
Often times, the 2nd string q.b. is the most popular player on the team.
Remember when Stephens was playing poorly and fans wanted to see B.J. Coleman play? I remember him starting the Vandy game. We had maybe four pass plays the entire game. We ran the ball all the time and we won the game because Eric Berry forced an interception and gave us the game. So, At that time, B.J. didn't have the coaches confidence enough to even pass the ball. So, B.J. was not an improvement over Stephens.
None of us has seen Peterman play yet, so the jury is still out on him. However; I have seen Worley play. He played well against M.T.S.U. but the Vandy game this season and the Arkansas game from last season were not good for him at all......
ahhh, ok I see... I missed that one. k:
Personally. I don't care who the starter is right now. Which ever one or combination gets us the most wins.
With the poor game time coaching we've had over the last couple of years, I personally am considering this to be my own personal year *zero* as far as evaluating and deciding how I feel about the players on our roster.
Amazing, isn't it? I've been on this team for eleventeen hundred years and I have no idea what we have. (now that Patterson is gone)

It really is. That is why i'm choosing to be optimistic. As far as I know at this point, we may be fielding a NC team. Even the guys that did not play up to my expectations last year have an excuse in my eyes.
I do know we have a good O-Line, so that is something. I don't hold with the arguement that they weren't very good at run blocking, because I really don't think they were given the same amount of game time experience to mature at it as they were pass blocking. I mean when you pass on all of your 3rd and short plays, that takes away a lot of oppurtunity for your line to get better at run blocking.
I thought our O-Line did a good job at run blocking as well as pass blocking.
A lot on here don't agree with you. I do, but a lot don't.
We excelled in pass blocking. Don't think anyone (or at least few) argue that. Run blocking tends to be where most differences of opinion come into play. My opinion is that we did well. The only preason that the O-line didn't mayure as quickly with run blocking as pass blocking was because of the in game situations they were put in due to bad passes, dropped balls and bad in game coaching. Playing from behind tends to take the running game out of the picture. Throwing on 3rd and 1 definitely does.
