    The decision as to which QB is our guy has been pushed back until after the first game at least.

    Gators Plan To Use Two QB's In Opener
    I imagine that by the time we play the Aggies in two weeks we will have one.

    I have never, ever seen anything to convince me that playing two quarterbacks is a good idea.

    I agree Stu, however I think the first game is much like a scrimmage so he's just taking an extra week to make up his mind.

    Didn't Spurrier alt Jesse Palmer and somebody else at the begining of the season once? I think it was every other play or series though.

    Spurrier used 2 QB's to upset FSU 32-29 and end their national championship hopes. He rotated Doug Johnson and Noah Brindise every other play in 1997.

    He then started the next season rotating QB's also, I believe it was Doug Johnson and Jesse Palmer but don't remember for sure. He went away from it after a few games.
