I think, if the TEAM(offense/defense) rallies around who ever is able to play, they have a decent chance!Rudy did not start at Notre Dame as an defensive lineman. Notre Dame was 8-3 that year and finished #17 in the country. Rudy was a walk on who wasn't offered by anyone out of high school who made the scout team at Notre Dame.
Stetson Bennett is UGAs Rudy with the difference being we are starting our scout team QB who is actually our second string QB for whatever reason. We can beat everyone on our schedule with our Rudy. Might even beat Alabama with our Rudy. May do it twice....but I suspect very little money would be wagered on our doing so. The upside is that should we manage to win a natty with what is, for all intents and purposes, our scout team QB it will be one of the greatest stories ever written in the annals of college football history....and Kirby Smart will have proven to be the greatest coach the game has ever known and it ain't close. Bear Bryant never won a natty with a scout team QB. Nick Saban couldn't do it. No one has ever done it. Kirby Smart may well be the first. I'd bet not many people would bet on it......
