Yep. Florida and A&M are the wild cards. Otherwise there’s eight teams we should beat (never a guarantee though—see: South Carolina being on this list) and Georgia/Bama.
Watching Milton sit in that pocket waiting to bomb it fifty yards, I keep thinking he’s gonna take off realizing he’s built like a tank TE with good speed and start running like the gator QB, hasn’t happened much yet.
The runs will be in the game plans next year or he won’t start long. This offense needs multiple qb runs per game. It was raining and we had a walkon as a backup. 100% believe Milton was told to just launch it or get rid of it and not keep it on rpo.
We were up scores and shutting them down from the start. Kind of makes sense not to risk anything while blowing out vandy at the end of the year when already down a qb
And those deep throws were safe low risk high reward. They simply manged his night and he managed the game just fine.
If they run him properly and regularly and he hits enough bombs he should get us to Nico or the other QB that's hurt whether that's sometime in 2023 or 2024.
I really wanted Milton to get it (and still do) because he just has a great talent and he seems to have really bought into what Heupel is selling, even if it doesn't show on the field. He has been a great teammate and that is all you can ask for. That said, after Saturday, he just looks too much like he did last year and I really don't hold out much hope.
I would waste 100 bucks on betting on him winning the Heisman on 2023 because if it clicks he's Cam Newton, I just don't expect it.
We have no reason to believe it will happen necessarily, but I won’t bet against Heupel finding a way to teach Milton how to get a little air under the ball on some throws and how to just take a little mustard off on others.
Completing the occasional pretty bomb is nice, but the guy can't complete a 10 yard pass to save his soul.
People don’t want to hear this it’s sounds to down on the farm. He needs intense one on one coach in technique, that is if his personality will allow him to be teachable. Perhaps the reason he didn’t leave is no one would want him, would you? He’s fooled two universities with that big arm. But he doesn’t like contact, has bad timing, bad touch on passes, and the games too fast for him at times. But he has the raw material for a great QB. He needs a qb coach who can reach him. If he gets in the nfl it wouldn’t shock me to see him transform into a great one.
