He's got this guy who, frankly wouldn't start at most schools but is able to start at Bama because NORMALLY, Bama outclasses other teams in terms of personnel.

But the dude is NOT a QB. Bama has been running a glorified wildcat for 2 years.

But the problem he's got is that he has a REAL quarterback that's only 1 year behind Hurts.

No fricking way Hurts is a early draft entrant at QB. So, is Tua really gonna chill on the bench behind that garbage for 3 years to play 1?

First of all good game to Auburn but I’ve said Tua will start before Hurts graduates. Hurts should switch eventually to what he’ll try to play in the NFL.

He’s gonna be a slot guy or third down back like Braxton Miller or Denard Robinson. It’ll be interesting to see if he switches next year or the year after.

Jalen didn’t lose the game today though. Auburn was better on both sides of the ball on 3rd down and Alabama committed some really dumb penalties. Auburn is a tough place to play so really no embarrassment losing to a good team. They just outplayed us.

If Tua is better why doesn't he play? Saban hardheaded?

Delusional. LSU would rival Bama’s record the past 6 years if we had a qb like Hurts the whole time. Seriously, LSU has been just a quarterback away. Hurts > Etling, Harris, Jefferson, Jennings...

He's an average QB, who's been able to hide behind bamas line and running game, and defense. There will be a QB battle in spring, 100% no doubt.

Hurts is terrible. He wants to scramble for a first down every third or fourth down b/c he can’t pass. He should be a QB at a lower tier power five team such as Vanderbilt, Kentucky, North Carolina State. He has no business starting at an elite SEC school.

If Hurts is garbage then every other SEC school should revoke their membership and play in Conference USA.

I believe Tua will beat out Hurts next spring/fall and start game one next year

Their passing game is starting to remind me of LSU under Miles

If he ain't a quarterback and Nick wants to get rid of him (which ain't gonna happen) we'll take him. Dude knows how to win..does what it takes. Runs, passes, and evades the rush as well as anyone.

That trash/glorified wildcat, has beaten us and just about everyone else for the last 2 years. If I'm Saban, I stay with the guy who brings me the best demonstrated ability to win me games and that person is Hurts

I remember earlier in the year Dan Patrick tried to mention Hurts as a Heisman candidate

I like DP but that was comical
