And what about Johnny's on field resume are you confused about?


The on-field resume in which his team has 2 losses AT HOME, with the "highlight victory" being a 3-point win over inconsistent-as-hell, 3-loss Ole Miss?

Thats it. You have literally not beaten anyone else. Your other in-conference victory came against an Arkansas team that is now getting curb-stomped by everyone they play; yet you somehow managed to let them drop 30+ on you. By the way; Arkansas' 33 points in that game is their second highest all year, second only to the 34 points they scored against Louisiana-Lafayette. They scored less points against Samford, and winless Southern Miss.

Like I said: the resume is that of a fringe Top 25 team. Yet the marketability/media hype of Manziel is earning you a hilariously inflated "ranking".

By the way; these rankings are TEAM rankings. Not QB-Accomplishment rankings. Not Offensive-Accomplishment rankings. Manziel's accomplishments are admirable and noteworthy. His offensive accomplishments however should not truncate the obvious resume-flaws that his TEAM has shown to date. Most notably; 1) a lack of significant wins, and 2) two in-conference losses on home-field.

All of this is fine and dandy, and if you didn't lose to LSU people might rank you higher. Other than that most people see Manziel and know he makes A&M capable of winning any game they play against any team they play. Auburn isn't. Auburn isn't capable of beating as many teams as Texas A&M.
