Interesting. Why do you think he isn't the starter?

Certainly the same would be true in practice, right? I mean, in practice he must look like a superstar, given our pretty awful D.

What is it do you think you see that Drink doesn't after watching both of them play over the last month?

I do think Bazelak will start this weekend, but why didn't he start either of the first two games?

And this is a serious question. I think he looked better against Tenn, but he looked much worse against Bama. I'd argue because of the reasons I mentioned + he misses the short throw it seems.

I think the answer is because both QBS have flaws, Robinson's in practice/camp have been much less apparent and he played relatively scared after Bama last game. I think Bazelak has a solid arm, but deals with the things I mentioned previously.

No way in hell does Bazelak consistently outperform Robinson in practice and then Drink gives Robinson two starts in a row because "experience". Complete BS. Robinson outplayed him in camp, period.

IMO it translated on the field against Bama but did not translate against TENN. Why? Because TENN is really solid at run defense, and terrible at pass defense. Bazelak throws a better intermediate/deep ball. That's why he played last game. When we play a team that is awesome at Pass D and sucks at Run D, Robinson will get the nod again.
