I think they should alternate series in the first half, then play whoever looks better the whole second half.
Saban tried that with Marcus Randall and JR. Didn't work out very well.

"Saban tried that with Marcus Randall and JR. Didn't work out very well."
I could not disagree more with this assertion. While the QB play was often poor in 2004 due to Randall's limitations and JR's early developmental stage, using 2 QB's almost certainly caused us to win games that we would have lost. that team went 9-3 with very narrow losses to Auburn (10-9 with us missing a PAT) and Iowa (defensive screwup on last second heave). If we go solely with Randall, we lose to Oregon State. If we go solely with JR, we lose to Florida.
I want to JL play more not because he has shown how good he is, but because neither QB has shown that he is that good. So, let's give both guys a chance to have some success and in the process, maybe we can find a hot hand in a game that will allow the offense to play better.
Playing the 2 QB's in 2004 was not the cause of poor/inconsistent QB play, it was the result of and, at least on some occasions, the cure for such poor play. Let's try something akin to it in 2010.
