Skull Session: Fast Starts Have “Set the Tone” in Ohio State’s Wins Over Tennessee and Oregon, Emmanuel Acho Calls Will Howard “The Worst Remaining Quarterback” in the CFP

Emmanuel Acho Calls Will Howard “The Worst Remaining Quarterback” in the CFP
Former Texas linebacker Emmanuel Acho has been in the news for several reasons in the past 24 hours. One of them is that he called Will Howard “the worst remaining quarterback” in the CFP. While I don’t make a habit out of reserving sections for hot-take artists like Acho, I feel the need to defend Howard here.
Howard was incredible in Ohio State’s wins over Tennessee and Oregon, completing a combined 41 of 55 passes (74.5 percent) for 630 yards, five touchdowns and one interception. According to ESPN Stats & Info, his QBR in those contests was the best among quarterbacks to compete in the CFP or a bowl game this postseason.
I see Quinn Ewers in the top 10, but Penn State’s Drew Allar and Notre Dame’s Riley Leonard are nowhere to be found. Interesting!
- Ohio State’s Will Howard vs. Tennessee: 98.7
- Ohio State’s Will Howard vs. Oregon: 97.7
- Miami’s Cam Ward vs. Iowa State: 97.6
- Arkansas’ Taylen Green vs. Texas Tech: 95.9
- Mississippi’s Jaxson Dart vs. Duke: 95.2
- Syracuse’s Kyle McCord vs. Washington State: 94.3
- Louisville’s Harrison Bailey vs. Washington: 92.1
- Texas’ Quinn Ewers vs. Arizona State: 91.9
- Navy’s Blake Horvath vs. Oklahoma: 90.6
- West Virginia’s Garrett Greene vs. Memphis: 90.4

Will loves to be challenged. Acho, in his ignorant and biased opinion, just created some more wood for the fire that's already burning inside of Will.

Tell him swimming is a sign of weakness unless you're capsized on a boat. Just don't go is my point.

Well there's two onions to slice there. Go for the hot girls at the pool. No shame in taking that approach. But going fake drowning like the Sandlot is not a bad gig.his football buddies made fun of him for swimming, until they found out there are girls there

True. It might be something contagious. Probably not worth risking getting someone else sick. Do the responsible thing and stay home.

Emmanuel has [allegedly] been dipping his pen in the company ink at Fox it seems.
His brother Sam picked Clemson to win it all after teams were announced, which was....odd.
They were both great players for Texas (particularly Sam) but they don't really come across as Texas homers. Seems like shock jock engagement farming, searching for a differentiated take that doesn't work very well.
