Mangus has talented stable of QBs

    I don't know about that, especially in the NFL. All of the better teams realize they need at least a capable back-up who can fill in for a few games, because you can't have the success/failure of a season hinge on one guy. Actually finding and having that capable back-up is another matter.

    expectations are on the rise for this team. While he had limited game experience, I felt a lot more confident with Shaw as a back-up last year than I do with this year's back-ups. I truly hope someone rises to the occasion and/or it never come to that, but there is a lot of "unproven" behind him. Reading this article (and some of the comments) is making me feel a little better.

    2011 Chicago & Houston say hello. Chicago was a playoff team until they cratered and missed the playoffs after Cutler went down and Houston made the playoffs but never had a real shot in the postseason with Yates instead of Schaub. Even good NFL teams struggle to have competent back-up qbs on an every-year basis. There just aren't that many to go around and that applies to the college game as well.

  • I wonder how many of our opponents backups folks could name without looming it up and of those which were proven in any way.

    Hutson mason at uga is completely unproven.

    Both driskell and

    UK has Morgan Newton which I guess is a plus behind the young starter.

    No idea about Vandy or Missouri.

    Tennessee has Worley who is not good.

    I guess LSU might now be Bolden?

    You did better than me. The only one I could come up with was Cole Stoudt...as I chuckled.
