NCAA Football 2016 - The road to Arizona ( and various other places)

Iā€™d say his passing is more average than mediocre. And as a freshman who started 5 or 6 games this year, and hasnā€™t a clue about this offence, heā€™s been mightily impressive tonight.

Itā€™s not. Itā€™s mediocre. A 10/8 TD to pick ratio is poor in a gimmick offense. 55% accuracy is even worse.

Can you throw up the stats of any NFL QBsā€™ first 6 college starts? Is the TD/Int ratio comparable? Would they have had nearly 100yds/game with 5.2ypc thrown in to complement said passing stats?

Running stats donā€™t matter. They are no compliment. Tim Tebow is the greatest running QB in NCAA history. Look at his clusterfuck NFL ā€œcareerā€.

Whatever about the ratio, 55% accuracy in an option attack is shit, and is a huge mark against him, even as a freshman

So the rushing nature of a dual threat QB can be safely ignored by opposition Dā€™s? You brought stats into this. I agree stats donā€™t paint the whole picture. Russell Wilson and Cam Newton were both throwing completion rates in the mid 50s at this stage but that doesnā€™t paint a clear picture of their potential at a young age. Now heā€™s unlikely to emulate those 2, but to throw out your imaginary dumb ratings is ignorant and juvenile.

I bet youā€™re not even watching the game either.

5 times editing that post pal? Thatā€™s be a 0% completion rate with 5 intercepts.

Blame the poor 3G in Mayo on that, pressed delete by accident and the cunting thing kept reappearing after I reposted

No. The dual threat can be ignored by those assessing QBs as passers, and to a significant extent, those assessing them as potential NFL prospects.

Dramatic ending in San Diego. Wisconsin robbed of a TD when umpire yields to USC sideline pressure and calls McEvoy OOB on a sideline run when he was clearly in. Typical of the cheating Trojan cunts. Winconsin star QB Stave is stamped on and gets a busted nose in scenes eerily reminiscent of Galway 2006 county final. Portly Brazilian Rafael Gaglianone kicks the go ahead FG for Winconsin. USC get a controversial sideline call in their favor on review that looked out. All over, Wisconsin win 23-21.

One would think some of these student athletes are not taking these bowl games too seriously.

On a related note, a pretty disinterested looking Florida State are getting their arses handed to them by Houston in the Peach bowl. Down 21 - 3 at halftime.

Orange bowl just started. Oklahoma getting the running game going on first possession.

Nice bit of trickery from Clemson on the fake punt there. Results in a touchdown two plays later which puts them up 10 - 7.

This officiating crew are taking no shit on or off the field.

Clemson looking good for Glendale, Arizona at the beginning of the 4th.

Defense doing the business.

TD Clemson, should be home and dry from here

Clemson were very impressive in that win. Will give Alabama a game in the final if, as expected, the Tide handle Michigan State in this game.

Alabama DL blowing holes through the MS OL. Michiganā€™s defense hanging tough so far.

Both defenses dominant so far but Derrick Henry is beginning to make some yards.

However, Sparty gotta be happy enough.
