Florida's backup QB. Someone give a scouting report please.

[ptcarter]

Hey Lawrence Wright and Law Gator. What's the scoop on Del Rio's backup? What can we expect.

 

[gordonr24]

He's bad enough that Gator fans despise him.

 

[Shocker0]

Expect him to go 0-26 passing with 9 interceptions and the Gators to struggle. With that said, Gators win 6-2

 

[SolidRockGolf]

It's time!!! We are going to break this curse!

 

[Orangeslice13]

5th year senior who is very good at tennis

 

[IPleadInsanity]

Whoever he is, he will be superior to the 1st 3 QB's we have faced this season.

 

[VolsRule]

He's not very good -- he will get rattled early next week and throw some picks

Our defenders will actually have to turn their heads to intercept the ball.

 

[ScottyG210]

Fifth-year graduate transfer Austin Abbley. Never heard of him

 

[truevol16]

Probably something along the lines of a 10-9 game... I expect us to be on the winning end this time. Of the small amount I saw appleby (spelling?) he handed the ball off well. He threw a couple successful screen passes and over threw two semi- deep/20 plus yard passes. If our defense just stays on assignment we will be fine. Not worried about their offense.

 

[vol-un-tear]

I hate back ups!

 

[ptcarter]

What's his name?

 

[lawgator1]

Running game is decent. That's what we're left with.

 

[DD4ME]

When he went into the NT game he lobbed a horrible throw sky high while taking a sack and followed that up with a tipped ball that was nearly intercepted. Regardless he will be all world against us

 

[NorthDallas40]

Austin Appleby. 5th year grad transfer from Purdue

 

[DD4ME]

What's his name?

Appleknees

 

[VOLinAL]

Doesnt matter. Going off of recent UF games he will be getting his keys to the heisman house after he plays us.

 

[VolnJC]

Ivey is also out for the 1st half...5 star tackle

 

[give_him 6]

They could insert a WR as their QB and it not matter, just like Matt Roark did for Kentucky in 2011.

 

[NEVolFan]

Hey Lawrence Wright and Law Gator. What's the scoop on Del Rio's backup? What can we expect.

You won't hear from LG... he took his ball and went home.

 

[NorthDallas40]

Ivey is also out for the 1st half...5 star tackle

Nope. SEC front office confirmed he plays

 

[Lawrence Wright]

Hey Lawrence Wright and Law Gator. What's the scoop on Del Rio's backup? What can we expect.

He's about as accurate as Dobbs with a bad shoulder, and less mobile than a healthy Del Rio.

Streak ends next week folks...Barnett will feast on Austin Appleby.

 

[Rockytoptn83]

Whoever he is, he will be superior to the 1st 3 QB's we have faced this season.

No. Jerod Evans is way better than a 2nd string Purdue transfer.

 

[VolnJC]

Appleby is big kid 6'4" 240 19 tds/19ints 5th year senior from Purdue

[GoBigOrangeVols]

UF should get their freshman dual threat (F. Franks) ready to take some snaps. Mobile QB would be big for them if Del Rio is out awhile and Appleby isn't the answer.
