mature & poised... like a seasoned veteran. He made good decisions, and his throws were crisp (not floaters). It is simply baffling that he hasn't had a chance until now. Unbelievable, really.
Up the road, Dabo will bench a senior starter who took them to the CFP last year because he thinks a true freshman is slightly better. This is a decision he made after watching them both compete in real games.
In Columbia, it's like a conscious decision was made to make sure no one got to see that there was any other option than the coach's kid. Bentley could have, and very well may have won such a true competition if given the opportunity. But you would think the coaching staff would try to do something like that even if just to avoid the appearance of daddy-ball... 'cause right now that's exactly how it seems.
