Summer Blues

The summer blues will soon be upon us.  The baseball team is going nowhere.  Spring training is over.  We will have no idea about the 2016 team until Clemson shows up at Jordan-Hare.  The only drama is who will start at QB.  No matter who it is it will be a challenge.

2016 A-Day

The defense dominates in a 19 to 10 score.  Daniel Carlson kicks 5 field goals in a windy stadium.   He should be the best placekicker in the country.  Jovon Robinson has one long run.  Kamyrn Pettway has a good run.  Malick Miller has a long run.  The consistent passing isn't there.  If this offense is going to dominate like Malzahn teams in the past somebody has going to step forth at QB and we've got to throw the football better even if the power running is there behind a good offensive line.  I see no clarity in the quarterback situation.  The fact that the QBs have on non-contact orange shirt is a factor so we didn't to see what John Franklin III can do on the zone read, but I see nothing to indicate he can be an effective passer.  The starting quarterback against Clemson will either be Franklin or Jeremy Johnson.  The latter has good moments and bad moments.  I see the same quarterback that I saw last season.  The defense should be solid with depth.  I'd rather have a solid defense than a solid offense to start with.  Anyway, it is what it is.
