I was exaggerating to make a point, that point being too many people are shouldering JG with unrealistic expectations given the talent around him and the play calling that he’s powerless to do anything about

Its unrealistic but it's not all due to the talent around him and the play calling either.

It has as much to do with him being an average QB as any of that.

Our schedule through 7 games consists of 2 scrub teams and:

#9 WVU
#22 Florida
#2 Georgia
#8 Auburn
#1 Bama

Absolutely brutal for a first year staff.

well, they're being paid "big boy" money. Someone on this staff has to get these guys excited to play. This is college and you're supposed to enjoy playing. Yesterday was another dead man walking contest until they were embarrassed on the xpt play. Then they started playing or ga quit. I don't know which but the team is the most unmotivated team I've seen and Ky was bad.

I think with better talent around him he can be better than average. I will say that he is definitely not a dual threat though.

Not only is he not a dual threat, he is very stiff in the pocket and goes down too easy. The first rusher in, usually gets a glove on him and the 2nd man gets him to the ground. He isn't good at feeling the pressure and alluding it. I'm surprised at his lack of agility.

Six ranked opponents puts our schedule up there among the hardest.

When we started the season, it was only four, and our schedule was second-tier difficulty.

But now, that's going to grade out pretty near the top.

Not that it matters if we don't win more than four games. Only those with 10 or 11 wins care much about how their schedule difficulty compares to others.

This board is like “Groundhog Day” sometimes.

Every year, it’s the same thing. Don’t respect anyone on the schedule outside of Alabama and some other team then, after losing games, take note of how difficult the schedule is.

A few weeks ago, West Virginia was a mediocre, barely .500 team from the Big 12 and Florida was trash.

I'm sure this is your first time pointing out our shortcomings.

It works itself out. If they beat LSU, they belong in the top 25. If they don’t, they’ll drop out again.

No one worries about who is ranked #22

Those who worry about the AP poll remind me of the opening scene from "Porky's" with Pee Wee, his ruler, and chart.

Florida is still trash.

What's your point?

Kentucky was left out of the OP... and Florida really doesn't deserve to be ranked at all based on the crap teams they have beaten (and yes, we are the crappiest of them) but it won't last. And gee, I wonder who is voting Clemson #1 after their struggle at home with Syracuse yesterday?
