I see a few similarities in these 2 QBs.
Both QBs have good size at 6'4 or 6'5. Both have the ability to scramble but neither is really a burner or a running QB. Both teams rely on good defense and run game to win games. Coaches dont seem confident enough to put the ball in the air to win a game with these two.
Jeff is avg about 12 completions per game, which is probably pretty close to what JJ would average at any given time.
Does anyone else think they are comparable?

2009 Jordan Jefferson was statistically a better QB than Driskell and Mettenberger.

I give JJ the edge over jeff. He could play kicker if need be and JJ is extremely good with the camera.

Jordan Jefferson wasn't white, your arguments are irrelevant.

Driskel isn't a classless thug

What is up with comparing UF QBs and LSU QBs?
Driskel is a burner once he gets going. He is still a 1st year starter so I hope he develops into a better decision maker and better ball handling. He has a good to great arm and in past games did not force things.
UGA's D was able to get Driskel all game. Driskel did not handle that well.

Driskel runs a 4.5. Not many QB's run faster than he does.

LSU fans would love for JD to turn out that shitty

I'd have to see Driskel's shoe collection to give an accurate compare & contrast.

Skill sets are similar.
If you are Florida fan, you would hope Driskel keeps improving and doesn't regress like JJ did last year. JJ reached his peak at the end of 2010, playing the best games of his career (IMO) against Alabama and Texas A&M. The next year, he was not the same QB. After playing well against weak Auburn and Florida teams, he regressed against better competition (Arkansas, Georgia, Alabama).
