Arizona might have the worst NCAA QB of all time. God awful.

Oregon State Senior cornerback Treston Decoud followed up an impressive performance of only surrendering five catches on 14 targets for 28 yards by not allowing a catch against Utah (they only threw two passes his way). The 6'3" defensive back has quietly been one of the better senior defenders in the country this season.
It’s been an up-and-down season for Stanford, but defensive lineman Solomon Thomas continues to be a model of consistency. He had a sack, another quarterback hit and two hurries for a total of four pressures against a good Notre Dame offensive line. He now has 28 quarterback pressures in six games this season.
Oklahoma wide receiver Dede Westbrook had another monster game, hauling in nine of his 11 targets for 184 yards and three touchdowns. Each week Westbrook makes a huge play, and against Kansas State that continued, hauling in 88-yard touchdown.

With the Browns sitting at 0-6, there is a high possibility the always quarterback-needy team from Cleveland could be sitting first overall. Right now, there is no clear-cut top quarterback prospect who would be guaranteed to be taken. The Browns (or another team, potentially a trade-up partner) would be left with a difficult choice: Take a top talent, such as Myles Garrett, or grab a quarterback and attempt to develop him, even if the talent does not warrant the top selection.
Garrett has rare traits as a pass-rushing prospect. He can fly off the edge but also work as an interior rusher as well. At 6'5", 270 pounds he has the ideal length and strength that every NFL defensive staff desires. Not only does his skill set warrant a top selection, but he has the production to match as well.
Now, which quarterbacks could possibly warrant going first overall? Notre Dame’s DeShone Kizer has the most raw arm talent in this class (if he declares), but his decision-making and overall processing through reads is a work in progress. He’s very young, and starting out on the bench could be a wise strategy. One can argue his upside is worthy of a top selection.

If Bama ever gets in a game where they have to depend on the QB to bail them out with his arm, I think they could be in trouble.

Sound strategy to beat them. Problem is, they've been relying on that strategy themselves for the past decade.

Fournette ends night with 16 carries, 284 yards and touchdown runs of 59, 76 & 78 yards.
With their upcoming schedule (games against Alabama, Arkansas, Florida and Texas A&M if he had huge games and they somehow win those, he might still be a factor in the Heisman race.

How do Tech fans stand that garbage? Run as many plays as possible and throw it every down. Sure you rack of tons of yards -- you're running more plays. But you have zero chance of fielding a good defense and you always lose. What good is scoring a lot when it doesn't help you win?
