5 reasons McElroy considers Bentley SEC East's best QB
Apr 4, 2017, 10:32 AM
|

Trust you have a strong stomach and nothing makes you sick.
McElroy: "Jake Bentley's terrific. His knowledge and understanding and feel for the game. He’s extremely poised with a tremendous head on his shoulders."
McElroy: "One thing I appreciate that gets kind of lost at the college level is how much he changes at the line of scrimmage himself. So many guys look at the sideline and get calls from their coach. Seldom do you see a sophomore quarterback change calls without the assistance from a coach. He’s only getting better with that."
McElroy: "His passing acumen and accuracy down the field is top shelf. Sky the limit but it depends on the offensive line keeping him upright and the running game taking some of the pressure off what they’re going to ask him to do."
McElroy: "If you look in the East, just knowing the pieces South Carolina has coming back, you can put them up near the top. Missouri’s offense is outstanding, but do they ever really do it against top-level competition? The best, most complimentary offense … I think South Carolina has argument for it."
McElroy: "I think Jake Bentley is better than Jacob Eason. I don’t think it’s close, frankly. Bentley is much more athletic, didn’t have as many stars and Eason’s a statue in the pocket. I think he’s got too much arm for his own good sometimes. Bentley throws a catchable ball, has accuracy and makes it easy on his wide receivers. Based on what I know to this point, it’s Bentley and I’m not sure it’s close."

Bentley would struggle to make the three-deep at Clemson.

UGA wins the East though. They'll have a salty defense.

Bentley's Stats versus 2 Defensive Teams with A Pulse
Apr 4, 2017, 11:07 AM
|
|
Clemson and Florida
Clemson Stats 7/17 41 Yards 1 int 0 TDs QBR 4.9
FLA Stats 18/33 213 Yards 1 int 0 TDs QBR 21.6
So he averaged 12.5 completions for 25 attempts 127 yards 0 TDs 1INT and a QBR of 13.2
The best QB in the SEC?
Tallest midget.

There is NO question...

that Bentley's limited success came against a bunch of lousy defenses. Once he finally had to face a defense with a pulse, he didn't fare nearly as well.
CussChamp basically pi$$ed-away a year of the kids eligibility. Any of the other QB's on $CU's roster would have likely performed just as well against those swiss cheese defenses.

McIlwain was the better QB of the 2, and he sucked so badly that he should not play QB (or football). The ONLY reason Bentley started is because his daddy was a coach. Possibly Deebo Samuels was a better QB for all we can tell. McElroy was just being kind so he can be allowed to broadcast games. I wouldn't put a lot of stock in anything he might say.

Only reason he is playing college football is because he is the offspring of a coach at USuCk

Huh??? In our game he couldn't run the original play without running to the sideline to get the call verbally. If he's changing the play at the LOS it's because he can't remember what Daddy told him on the sideline.

Bentley would never see the field at Clemson. He's not good enough to play for us.

Who else are the other options? The kid is good, I can't even hate, but there's no other decent options coming back in the East except Eason. That being said, a great QB behind a porous offensive line isn't a good combination.

The commentary says more about the other QB's in the $EC Least than it does about Bentley.

He looked good from the sideline watching his team get smoked this year after he stunk it up.
Isn't he like a 23 yr old Sophomore though?
