didn't like it. No quotes from Brandon to look too deeply into or skewer into some odd meaning. Positive stuff be damned.

I think he makes a good point about Urban Meyer spoiling BG.

Rotated QBs like a DJ changing records? Give me a break.

Being the Stat Geek that I am I enjoyed reading the facts listed early in the article:
BG suffered their first loss to a one-win team since 1980.

and

It was the first year since 1997 where they didn't allow an opponent to score more than 40 points in a single game.

Yeah, it seems like he looked at the Turner-Sheehan-Turner rotation vs. UT, remembered that Sheehan came in for a few series here and there throughout the season, and oh yeah, Freddie! and wrote that... not one of his better efforts in that paragraph, but the rest is decent.

You mean it is as though he kept rubbing the record back and forth really fast with not logic or pattern and then saying it was creative?

I thought that line was great. Author's probably strikingly handsome and smells terrific as well.
