I wonder if there is such a stat as "third and at least 20 to go" in which case I think I'd go with CJ.

Maybe, but CJ's offense isn't often at 3rd & 20+ very often. I'm taking Pryor on 3rd & 20+

Personally, give me Braxton. The things he did on the field, I've seen few in CFB ever do with his athleticism at QB. Vick is the most dynamic QB I've ever seen in CFB, and though I wouldn't say Braxton is close to him, I'd say he's the closest OSU has had to him.
And honestly we still win the NC in 2014 with him and even beat VA Tech...

So far this year, CJ's passer rating on 3rd and 10+ is 316.32. That's > 50 points higher than the nearest QB not named Stroud.

Stroud is 19th in PE on 1st Down, 17th in PE on 2nd Down, but #1 in PE for all 3rd downs (PE of 276.6, > 20 points higher than anyone else)

As for the topic of this thread: Screw Blue

Impossible, DFBIA swears Stroud is "only good" when things are going easy. :lol:

I agree with all you nerds. JT was a good quarterback, but his strength was that zone read. I never really appreciated that as a skill, or that some people might not be as good at it, until I saw McSorely try to run it at Penn State. I still say that he lost the game against Ohio State in 2017 by continually making wrong reads. Part of it was Ohio State's defense beating Penn State's read option, but I also think that the correct reads would have scored the touchdown for Penn State late that should have put Penn State up 15 with about 6 minutes to go.

I don't remember many zone reads at that point of the game.
Most were designed "runs" (or shovel passes)
The goal line stand starts ~1:45.
1st down, QB makes right read imo. The DE has already penetrated to take away Barkley, and initially he had a hole.
2nd down... don't see many good options there. It's porous everywhere. He dives for a few yards closer.
3rd down, it looks like a predetermined "read" to me. He was told to give to Saquon.

My takeaway from that 4th Q, and that yt includes every snap Barkley figured in, was that Barkley spent a lot of time blocking thin air while the rest of his OLine was getting demolished.
Bosa, Hubbard, Landers, Jones, Holmes, Lewis... they all showed out.
And Saquon wanted no part of it.

They keep boasting about McCarthy LEADING THE NATION! In completion %

I bet his stats on balls that travel a decent distance in the air and aren't check downs to wide open TEs aren't as pretty.

They really believe stuff like this

Honestly kinda wild for a Michigan QB to lead the nation in completion percentage given that we don't do a bunch of Big-12 style dink-and-dunk throws. We default to handing off, so when our QB throws, there tends to be some degree of difficulty involved, especially in terms of what the defense expects. Pretty impressive
