Collins isn't good, but it has also been 10 quarters of him taking meaningful snaps.  He did not throw away the Clemson game.

Arch Manning is struggling.  He has far more pedigree, hype, talent and weapons around him relative to his opposition than Rickie has.  Returning QBs in the Heisman discussion for LSU, Penn State, and Clemson are struggling.  Imaleava was 0-4 and then just upset PSU... running for 150 yards. Amazing what a new O.C. can do in his first game to help a struggling QB.

Tennessee almost lost to Mississipi State.  Georgia Tech probably should have lost to Wake Forest.  Angeli came real real close to losing to UConn.  Duke and SMU are better than UConn.

You can and should do what you want.  Personally, I like Fran because it seems like he wants to win as much as the fans want it.  He is not stupid and certainly not going to lose on purpose.  I doubt he is going to keep a better player on the bench for longer than necessary.  In fact, is there any other position on the field where we cannot understand why some backup is not getting more PT?   Antoine is starting.  Samuels is starting. The closest is Nixon stealing PT from Willis.  Only QB is it assumed that Fran is stubborn, drunk, or stupid. He may be close to taking Rickie out.  He may have done it yesterday.  If he did, so be it.  Collins had his chance. Next man up.  But I am not going to go on a hunger strike over it either way.
