So Who Gets the Start For the Bowl Game?

[MGNation92]

Aune had a solid game last game, and Bean has had some good games as well.

Who do we think starts at QB?

I'd like to think Aune, but Littrell may see Bean as more advantageous due to lack of Darden and increased lean on the run game.

Honestly I want them both to play but more scripted than reactionary. Start Aune for 2-3 series then bring in Bean but actually properly utilize his skills. That being said, if Aune goes 7-7 in his series you leave him in but make that clear to both from the start. 
I liked how they started the second half against UTEP with a strong run game and it eventually won us the game. Hopefully we mix it up well. And most importantly I don’t care who starts. I just don’t want to be down 21-0 early like happens so often.

With Seth, maybe it best not to get the start 😈

I think we've found something we agree on!

Whoever starts will have to slow this game way down.  With our lack of a defense we will have to limit their opportunities and chew up a lot of clock to have a chance.

I’d put both QB’s in for one very creative play.  Very creative!  🤢

Don’t laugh!  As many football fans would recall, we once had a team that had a “no fair catch signal” punt return for 90 yards. The late Hayden Fry called such trick plays, uh, “exotic” plays.

Nine games and we can’t choose a starter nor design a game plan around their strengths. Let’s see what happens against a good team without the offense’s security blanket. 
 

Personally I wish we would go with tight formations and just play smashball.

I like some have said don't care who starts, but would like to see Littrell play both and be creative with the play calling. Trick plays and gadget plays galore, including multiple QB sets.  This is the only way I see us staying close.  However, since Darden is out I would say Bean might give us the best chance.

Someone tell Bean maybe hanging onto the ball might help our chances of winning.

If we try plays that get us in and out quick and leave our D on the field for 35 minutes we will be in for a long ride home

Both have had their ups and downs over the course of the season, but I give a slight edge to Aune. Then you throw in the fact that Darden isn't in the lineup and then I think you have to reconsider because of Bean's game breaking ability. What is for certain is that this board will be split no matter who starts but we want the same outcome . . . a WIN! GMG

Based on the last game, starting qb is a guess because an hc who would pull his starter two plays into the game, is unpredictionable.

I would not be surprised if Littrell plays Dickey ball, and goes heavy running to shorten the game.  None of it matters if the defense plays as bad as they have most of the year. 

Aune starts and has an interception in the first series and never sees the field again.

Watch your tongue sir!  Aune has never turned the ball over...those were alternative punts!!
