Experience counts. Hope that keeps down his interceptions, especially for someone that professes to throw the ball away when in trouble instead of forcing it. Sometimes he threw it away to quickly and other times he forced it in error. He does have a strong arm. As we saw against Texas, we need better play from Alan if we want to win a championship.

Showtime!!! Iām happy for the guy! Like it or not, heās earned the right to ārun it backā as the kids say! If we donāt leave Arlington as Big 12 champs next season, itāll be a massive disappointment. Go Pokes! ā24 Big 12 Champs! CFP Bound. I choose to believe.

The dude is an adult, not a kid. Worst qb we have fielded in nearly two decades!. Time to move on to someone that does more than throw 50/50 balls off their back foot. Often without even looking to where he is throwing it. Anyone wanting to see that s*** show again obviously doesnāt understand footballā¦

That āsht showā got us to Arlington. If you think we have a guy in that QB room right now that couldāve done the sameā¦you are the one who doesnāt understand football. Rangel aināt it. And Gundy was NEVER gonna trust Gunnar or Flores to get it done. If Flores or Smith are better than Bowman next season, then you start them from day 1. If not, you roll with Bowman and pray heās improved along with Nardoās defense in year 2.

That terrible QB got us 10 wins. H#ll he beat OU, something we will relish in for decades to come. He should be in the ring of honor for just that! Not really but still Iād be ok with it.

Why do you say Rangel āaināt itā is this based solely off what he put on tape as a true freshman 2 years ago or do you have insider information?

Bowman is ranked 87th of 106 QBs in QB Efficiency. 87th. Of those 106 QBs Bowman had the 4th most interceptions.
We do not need to see anymore. Itās time for Flores, Rangel, or transfer portal.

After attending practices last year I firmly believe Flores is our future. (No Doubt)! With this being my opinion I just Hope Flores sticks around and does not go back to Nebraska or enter another program. Bowman has been good for the OSU with some of the intangibles of being a good leader - age - etcā¦ but Flores is the real deal - Gundy has had some issues in the past in determining our best option at QB. Bowman is the easy answer but the kid from Nebraska should be given an opportunity.

As much as Iād love to blame Dunn for his lowest passing efficiency in 7 years, weāve all seen him throw the deep ball. Itās bad.
I think what people might be missing is that he has 6 years of experience technically. Yet he has numbers worse than other freshman QBs. Heās simply turning the ball over too much for a veteran. So much that it should be unacceptable.

If Gundy has a better option to start at QB he will play him. This nonsense about Zane and Rangel not getting a chance to play is stupid. Rangel & Gundy got their chance this year and Zane & Rangel will get their chance next year. At the end of the day the QB that gives us the best chance to win next year will be the starter. If players leave because they donāt get to start, so be it.
