QB Justin Zwick (B1G Champion, National Champion)

This is two reasons why Troy Smith fucked his team

#1 They game planned for the spread offense and Now they have like 2-3 practices to get ZWick and the standard offense ready.

#2 We looked awesome in the spread offense and our players were getting used to it. Now they have to go back to the old offense with a QB that hasn't played in 5 games

They'll stay spread for the most part.... Its going to be easier to get Zwick up to speed than get teh rest of them (including the new O-lineman) back

This may be a make-or-break game for Justin. A poor performance would cement the view that he is a "bust" in the eyes of the fans. A great performance puts him in the drivers seat for next year.

Well... just because we need more controversy.. karma demands it... I'm sure his performance will be something in between.

Zwick just relax and let the game come to him

Zwick at least should be relaxed. He won't have to look over his shoulder for TS. He is the MAN for this game at least. I hope he comes up big, but he can't do it alone eveyone defense included must step-up. We could use a TG special team play..Go Bucks! In reality we lost Troy Smith..not Peyton Manning or McNabb. If this team is what we think it is..they should be fine!

I'm glad Zwick will have this opportunity and that we have him as our QB, under the circumstances. Krenzel seized the job with his perfomance against scUM as did Smith. Troy wasn't exactly setting the world on fire before that game. Zwick can, and hopefully will, have the same type of impact in San Antonio.

I feel good that Zwick is getting this chance, I think he will respond and help us get a victory, but the other guys (WR) need to make some plays and the O-line needs to hold their blocks a second longer with Zwick back there.

He showed flashes of being a solid qb and then had moments where he played like a sophmore. Lets be honest about one thing and thats the fact the other guys around him did not play well either, it was a team effort.

If we can give Zwick a running game, I believe he will be solid.

I don't see the coorelation between Zwick and the "standard" offense. We ran the spread a lot under Zwick...he just didn't run like Smith did. Oh yeah, if anyone has forgotten how good Zwick can be when he has time and his confidence is up, right-click and save this clip...

Was that giant font really necessary?

With all the Scarlett and Gray colored glasses, I figured regular font would be too hard to see. I'm having a hard time getting past his 11 total fumbles and pics. I HOPE he proves me wrong, but i'll believe it when I see it.
