Zeek 16,957 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Cautiously optimistic. The team is behind him. He has looked more mobile (thinking his ankle nagged him earlier than we knew). We don't need him to be great just decent. Solid run game and some basic passing mixed with a good defense can win. Our Vegas odds are 5.5 wins. I still lean towards the over. Expect to see all three quarterbacks in game one. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gr82b4au 5,583 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Before the start of summer he was the last person I wanted to see named quarterback. That is the truth. But after reading all the reports from the pay sites this summer, he is simply the best of the group. I wish him good luck this season! Now let’s go beat Mercer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoALtiger 4,068 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 He clearly has been the leading candidate during Fall camp. Good to see it announced and let’s go win some games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWALA Tiger 3,743 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Time to get behind Finley. He put in the work, earned the job... He won't complete every pass and will undoubtedly throw a pick or 2..... Folks need to understand He ain't perfect. But as usual, I'm sure the board will melt down at the 1st sign of adversity. GIVE THE GUY A CHANCE!!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodford 3,754 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Good for him. Now let’s the beat the living hell out of Mercer and SJSU and hopefully someone on this roster will be ready to lead the team against PSU whether it’s TJ or someone else.

I thought to myself the starter against Mercer will not be the starter against PSU but could be wrong. Have no idea what to expect. TJ could be a solid SEC QB with a bad OL or he could be a poor QB with a bad OL. Still throwing my hands up. Have absolutely no clue what to expect in the next month.

CodeRocket 413 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 I remember watching Cam Newton in the Spring game and thinking he was awful. Never entered my mind that he would be a serviceable quarterback much less win the Heisman. This team needs for TJ to be much improved and just maybe he is. Not expecting another Heisman winner but I wasn't expecting it in 2010 either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just can’t see how there would be a possibility of something like that happening. Harsin was a QB. And it seems like the marketing department would have him give some kind of notice, so they could draft up stuff. I don’t know sh*t about all that, though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barnacle 9,147 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 Hope this offensive line can adequately protect him. Good for him for doing all the hard work to get to this place. He has gobs of physical talent. High ceiling, IMO, but he’s going to need time to operate. Otherwise, we may see Ashford, and if so it will likely speak more to the condition of our line than the play of Finley. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WarEagle1983 2,194 Posted August 28, 2022 Share Posted August 28, 2022 If we can get to 7 or 8 wins, I'll be satisfied. I envision a lot of drinking this season. Auburn Football always loves to test the limits of my liver. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
