QB1 Julian Sayin (National Champion)

Also, Jules Passer Rating, QBR, and Completion Percentage are all way above Simpson, and has more Touchdowns and Yards...

Simpson is a very good QB who is mobile and makes good throws, but he’s really getting shoehorned in as a Heisman favorite because he’s on Bama.

He made some impressive throws against LSU, but missed a lot and made the job tougher for his WRs. And it’s not like LSU’s defense is a crack unit. Guys were open, he just missed them.

@charlohiottean I didn’t want to post this in the MP thread. But the Sayin/Brees comparison has been a real one for a while. And him working out with Brees just made the comparison stronger







Ive also seen him compared to Troy Smith as well..l

Ohio State DC Matt Patricia compares QB Julian Sayin to an NFL legend and his similar run in the Big Ten

Patricia's comparison holds up in more ways than one​

While Julian Sayin may currently be one of college football's best players, Ohio State defensive coordinator Matt Patricia is also comparing the redshirt freshman quarterback to one of the greatest quarterbacks of all-time.

Patricia, a longtime NFL coach who won three Super Bowls with the Patriots, said that Sayin reminds him of a fellow Big Ten quarterback who went onto enjoy a Hall of Fame NFL career.

"Very efficient, really good leader, smart with the football," Patricia said of Sayin on the Downs 2 Business podcast. "He's doing a good job of getting the ball out to those guys, too. So maybe that's a young Drew Brees. Maybe that's where we're headed with it."

From a numbers standpoint, Patricia's comparison holds up.

During his three seasons as a starter at Purdue, Brees led the Big Ten in completions three times and in completion percentage on two occasions. In his first year as Ohio State's starting quarterback, Sayin is currently pacing the Big Ten in completions and completion percentage.

Sayin, who has completed a staggering 80.9% of his passes this season, is on pace to set a new NCAA single-season record for completion percentage.

Both quarterbacks parlayed their individual success into team success. During his senior season (2000), Brees led the Boilermakers to a share of the Big Ten title and the school's first trip to the Rose Bowl in 34 years. In fact, it was a 64-yard, game-winning touchdown pass from Brees against the Buckeyes that season that spearheaded Purdue's conference championship. It also contributed to the end of John Cooper's long and largely successful run as the Buckeyes' coach.



This season, Sayin has helped the defending national champions get off to a 9-0 start entering Saturday night's home game against UCLA. Last week, against Brees' alma mater, Sayin completed a whopping 81.8% of his throws for 303 yards with a touchdown and an interception while helping lead the Buckeyes to a 34-10 win.

50yard laser with just a half step into it. Insane arm.

We won't realize how great he has been this season until we look back at it years from now. The stats seem to impossible to be real.
