Quote:He only averages 26 attempts per game and around 2.2k total passing yards through 10 games.  Compare that to some of the top QBs in the nation such as Murray, Shaw, Manziel, Winston, Mariota and Bridgewater, and his numbers seem very pedestrian.  I'm not saying he should have big numbers as I think numbers are overrated in the pro, but in college, numbers indicate a lot of production. 

 

FSU is probably the closest to Alabama in term of potential NFL talents than any other team in the nation right now, and one would think Winston only need to manage the game, but he's not.  He's completely dominating college football right now.  The same can be said about Manziel, Mariota and Bridgewater.

 

Truth of the matter is that McCarron isn't asked to do a lot. 

 

The QBs you listed with the exception of Winston(who only throws a lot because Jimbo likes running up the score on hapless ACC bums), all play in HUNH spread offenses that run more plays and sometimes have to throw more because the run is being stuffed. And honestly, Conner Shaw is a top QB? Is this Bizarro World?

 

As for the Heisman stuff, as a Bama fan, I honestly don't give a crap about it. Sure, it was nice when Ingram won, but if he never did, I wouldn't have been upset.

 

Don't know why people keep getting sucked into Bucky Brooks' opinions like AJ being a 1st-rounder. He'll probably go in the late 2nd-early 3rd like atburg posted before, but if he were to drop into the 4th, I'd love to get him to be Teddy's back-up as he'd be an absolute steal there.
