Should Howard get garbage time over Nuss Saturday?

If Howard's still redshirting Nuss needs the work. Running QBs do get hurt. Even if it's just a series here and there and not multiple games we will be seeing Nuss.

New Mexico defense is pretty good. They'll be some garbage time but nothing like Southern.

No sense in playing Howard if he is gonna hand off. He needs to throw it. That was a wasted game they put him in. He only has 4 if they want to red shirt him.

Nuss needs snaps regardless if he is the backup and we have the game in hand. Hopefully he can have a better outing than what happened against Southern so he can build some confidence in case we need him due to injury this year. We can't toss him in the garbage for the bad Southern performance even though his accuracy and decision-making need obvious significant improvements.

If the coaches feel like he has passed up Nuss, sure. If not, no. Whatever the coaches decide and whoever they think will start next year.

I think he should get some time but not over Nuss. I get it, Nuss didn't play well vs Southern but the guy also pushed our current starter for all he was worth.

I don't think you give up on a kid because he was pressing too hard to make a play when he finally got a chance. If he throws ugly picks vs New Mexico then maybe you look at the other guy.

No, Nuss will only improve if he plays

Nuss issues are always third down. He freaks out if he thinks we may have to punt

The problem with doing that is what if you find yourself in the situation we were in last season, and he can't QB a game because he would burn his redshirt? What if Daniels gets injured and Nuss decides to transfer after the regular season? You don't want to be in a position that you've used your four game appearances. And remember, we could have a couple forced on us by injuries. So no, I would not do it. Or maybe one more. Then you could get your third against UAB at the end of the season, and put him in when we're running out the clock on Aggie, lol.
