Any thoughts on what our record would have been and who, if any, would the losses have been to?

Honestly, there were only 3 teams who could have stayed on the field with us, regardless of which of our QBs played: Bama, Arkansas and Georgia.

Mett would not have been worse against Bama than Lee was in Tuscaloosa or JJ was in New Orleans.

The only wildcard was Mississippi State - despite our outclassing them in quality by an order of magnitude - they played a heck of a scrappy game, and it was relatively tight (though not quite as tight as the scoreboard indicated).

It may seem terribly homerish and overly positive, but I think we would have run the table with Mett as the starting QB and played a closer game against Bama in New Orleans (perhaps even winning it - therefore going 14-0 with a first time starting QB).
