I'm pretty sarcastic myself, so I see what you are saying..but McElroy had more playing experience, he was a RS JUNIOR(yes, i think that extra year was vital in his development)


Just tell me, when was the last time a RS Soph. won a national title in his first year starting?

McCarron actually has played in the same amount of games and has accumulated more statistics than McElroy had entering his first year as a starter.

Matt Leinart technically did in 2003, since USC won the AP poll that season.

Any team with a first year starter at QB has absolutely no chance at winning a national championship.

Just ask Tee Martin, Matt Flynn, and Greg McElroy.

When was the last time an awesome defense won a national title with average QB play? Oh....wait a sec....too many to count.
