Not many QBs look good against Bama, especially with non-SEC type talent. Tom Brady didn't light up the football field in Michigan. You could in fact argue that Ian Book's numbers look better at Notre Dame than Tom Brady's numbers at Michigan.

Yeah, but Smash it's a Star Trek Kobayashi Maru; though the QB is likely to fail, how he handles stress, is still able to make best possible decisions, Bama is a great test...

Book was one read, if that, and run, and even then he often chose the wrong running lanes...
