Are we doing it wrong? Does it need to be scrapped from our vaunted playbook? What needs to happen to get rid of the option? If it fails continuously in a game, do we keep the option at top of our playbook?
Why? Why? Why?

Yes. Jefferson isn't and never has been an option QB. Option QBs have to be smart and make good decisions in a split second.

Because Jefferson sucks worse as a passing QB than he does at the option. And of course he is the only quarterback on the planet.

Look for Miles to run the Wishbone next year with Mett at the helm.

I think Bama was more than ready for it. They had 3 guys string out anytime JJ went to pitch it. Ford had to juke two defenders to make anything out of it. Not happening.

Not really.

Alabama just defended it perfectly last night. We were so predictable with it.
