I have some ties to UT so pulling for you in this game.  It was evident after the first few series, especially the first quarter, that Peterman is not the guy and not remotely ready to play in the SEC.  You could argue that you need to leave him in and make mistakes so he can grow up and learn.  Well that's fine if it's near the end of the year and you're playing a meaningless game.  Bottom line, UF is not a good team and this is UT's chance to win at the Swamp.  Jones apparently doesn't want to appear to have made a bad decision starting the freshman, so he leaves him in almost the entire half.  He was killing the team (and the receivers sure weren't helping).  Even Worley's average play would have produced possibly a UT two score lead.  Instead, down by 10 at the half. Oh well.

Can't argue with much of it.  I thought he should have yanked him after the second turnover, but I could see a case for leaving him in.  Not after the int though.   

But let's back up a step...he should not have started at all.  Next game, fine, third series, fine, but don't start a guy for the first time on the road in the swamp.

Tough guy on a message board.  Get off the board if you don't want to read something.  It's not like someone is sitting in your living room with you.  I'll STFU as soon as you log off.

Today should put and end to anyone questioning Butch on who the starting QB should be.

No doubt.  I'm left with wondering what if Butch would've went against us all and started Worley.  *GROAN*
