I'm expecting Nuss to win the Heisman but even if I'm wrong there's no way in hell he plays badly enough to get benched.

Why would they be off balanced when you bring in your backup qb, specifically to run it??

3rdn3, Hilton scores on a pa go route from MVB would affect balance a bit.

In case Nuss fricks up and lays an egg against defenses with a pulse?

I rarely pile on to denigrate really stupid posts, but this is one that may go down in the history of bad posts, so I want my name associated with it.

Alter needs to spend some time at the altar.

I would be pretty surprised if Van Buren starts Fall 2026.

54% completion rate. 11:7 TD to INT ratio. 125 passer rating and 7 YPA. 3 star. LSU can do way, way better than that in the portal. Does he serve a purpose as backup this year? Absolutely. Do we want him as the starting QB of Fall 2026, no. I don't think we can make a CFP with him as starting QB. We have to be realistic on who can lead this team to a CFP, and who can't. It can't just be "He committed to us knowing that he'd be a backup, so I like him for that." That alone does not make a CFP quarterback.

if Nuss gets benched, we are so fricked


Nah. MVB was BALLIN in the Spring Game. It was pretty nasty the throws he had. If he sticks around, I like our chances next year even more because he's a true dual threat.

Before you idiots downvote, I still want Nuss to succeed and win this year.

He’s ready to fire all the starters by halftime!
And all the coaches, including CJJ for good measure!
Haha
