look, I think Harris is going to be the guy. But Jennings should get the start because he'll be more poised. Harris was just god awful in Auburn as a starter.


You are talking to a crowd that wants Harris to take his lumps, while also winning the game.

Jennings. I have no problem with BH and him playing roughly 50-50 until one of them separates.

As bad as Harris was, I think you are forgetting that Jennings was 10x worse, at home, against New Mexico State! He sucked vs Mississippi State, too, at home. How quickly some of you forget.

I completely remember. But Jennings was way more poised on road in SEC competition.

ennings should start. Harris completely shite the bed in Auburn. Jennings, in limited play, was much more poised at Auburn.


Is that honestly worse than doing the same thing against a cupcake at home? Three turnovers in 7 possessions against a terrible team is the definition of shitting the bed.

Harris basically couldn't run the offense. Nobody is saying he shouldn't play again, but to start him again, on the road, in a similar atmosphere as auburn, the next week would be foolish to expect different results. Why not put him in a situation he has actually been successful in ie off the bench.

Jennings will start, will do absolutely nothing on offense, but will stay in the game too long because he also won't be turning the ball over. Harris may come in once we're down a couple of scores.


It will be like the Moo State game in that Miles will wait until too late to pull the plug on an ineffective Jennings. Harris will come in and rally the Tigers but it won't be enough.

How do you people enjoy games if you already play out how you will be disappointed ?

Probably correct but never know with Lester. I just hope the second 3rd and out is as far as the struggle gets before something is done.

Here's to turning things around for a better second half of the season.

If Harris doesn't start then Les has made a mistake.

I don't necessarily agree. UF's D is real. Harris isn't going to have any less stressful of a time at UF, and he has proven that he isn't ready to handle that. Let Jennings start, and then bring in Harris at a later time.

And if he does, will you criticize him for other mistakes?

UF is going to stack the box and miles is going to have his QB's hand the ball off. Why not start harris? you know he's eventually going to be the full time QB... why delay it? let him take his lumps and get experience.

Jennings probably starts regardless of Harris being healthy. Jennings is a practice warrior
