I think we will score about the same amount of points with Dak or Tyler at QB - which is less than 10.

I think Williams is going to be a good player, we may find out more Saturday.

I wish we would run a pro set with Russell and not even try a read option all day.

Throw the ball on every play and never punt**

I think Mullen has already conceded this game and is just giving Tyler Russell some playing time because he's been faithful and it's his last year. Mullen knows that there is no way we win this game no matter who the QB is so he's letting Dak rest up (and avoid possible further injury) before the Arkansas game.

And that's the truth.

Regardless of who the QB is, there is no reason our offense can't score...

3 points on Bama*****

How about some diamond sets with Tubby at QB flanked by JRob, LDP and Griffin/Shump some.

That and throw up some big jump balls for Bear

I'm good with that..rest up Dak. But please please please

NO one back sets named Ladarius Perkins. Zero backs, JRob, two back or diamond. I love Ladarius but he is being misused. Ladarius as the lone back with Tyler has not worked vs other teams not named Alabama. It didn't work vs one of the worst defenses in A&M. I feel confident it won't work Saturday.

This is the best scenario IMO. A healthy Dak against Ark is our best chance.

No idea, but it looked like he hurt his left shoulder when he plowed over the TX A&M guy late in the game. I immediately thought separated shoulder or broken collar bone when I saw the hit.

He stayed in for 1 or 2 more plays but then Tyler took over.

+1. When I see Perkins line up in a one back set with Tyler, it gives me the same feeling of hopelessness I used to get when a Croom team got down by 2 scores. **** just isn't going to work out.

He may be done for the year. And if so, we are too. I doubt real seriously we will win another game with TR in the shotgun and LP standing three yards behind him.

Exactly

While I think our team (and offense) is more dangerous with Dak, it would still be mismanaged with him.

Dak may be done for the year. If this "rumor" is true he may have nerve damage and a torn rotator cuff. Again that's what the "rumor" is.

Assuming Dak can fully heal, it's actually the best thing that can happen to the

program and Dak. Mullen will have his two senior leaders leading the team to three losses, two of which should be blowouts. We will finish the season 4-8. We have cover to fire Mullen. We can hire Hudspeth who can turn Dak into a superstar. I think with Dak we should beat Arkansas and can beat Ole Miss. Without him, we have no shot because of Mullen's complete ineptitude as a coach.

Even more reason to fire Mullen if true. Players live for games like this. You don't jeopardize their opportunity at making history because you're scared of getting a QB hurt. I would rather us start Damien Williams than Tyler. And not because I dislike Tyler, but because I would rather not see him get paralyzed on the field because the 17ing Hunch wants to run QB draws and QB sweeps with him.

You have turned into an unbearable ****

So if I understand this correctly, Mullen should be fired because players live for games like this so they can make history...but you shouldn't start Tyler because you're scared he is going to get hurt? He didn't get hurt playing Bama the last 2 years but now that you want to suck off Hud, Tyler will surely die. Yep, makes sense.

Got an alert from the ESPN Scorecenter app and it mentioned elbow as well. Said he is questionable for tomorrow

Tyler can do this. The coaches just need to put him in the position to...

win two of the 4 games. I think he can make it happen if not held back by stupidity.

LDP in space
No one back sets
Don't run Tyler
Throw more than one GD Tight End pass a game
Quick hitter slant routes
Run the hurry up offense (do we have one?)
Dink and dunk all 4 teams left on the schedule like crazy and look for the random long ball

Sadly we might have to abandon the run completely against Bama.

Yeah we wouldn't look bad at all for firing a coach for losing games after he lost his best player to injury.**

**And it’s best for the program if we get blown out in the last 3 games.

I’m not too high on Mullen at the moment either but damn dude.

check mullen's headset after win - conspiracy theory

Myers is done by 3:00 central. if Mullen wins with Dak on the pine then it will be obvious that Myers and staff were on the life line bringing him through it. realtime bug in the other ear. He can't do this wo dak. it would take dak playing out of his mind with no turnovers and Mullen coaching way of out of his league.
