Brice spent all year throwing to two 1st round draft picks in Metchie and Jameson plus has a loaded roster built with similar or better talent than us. Struggled against UF who we destroyed, Auburn who we destroyed, Arkansas who we Destroyed, and a very down lsu. Lost to a bad tamu team with a back up qb.

Yet Stet ended the year with far better stats, QBR, yard per attempt etc... Even with Stet rarely playing past the 2nd-3rd qtr.

Yet Young wins the Heisman.... People just see what they want to see.

Hell our defense can double its points allowed per game we still boat race every team in regular season with an experienced qb....

100% agree, been trying to make this point for most of the season. Objectivity and truth make some people twitch, too many people, twitching like the hitchiker in Something About Mary when Ben Stiller brings up 6-Minute-Abs.

I’m a Stet fan, but you’re just kind of making stuff up here.

4,872 yards. 47 TDs. 7 picks.

2,862 yards. 29 TDs. 7 picks.


2000 yards and 18 extra TDs isn't exactly an inconsequential difference in performance.

While I agree that Stet deserves all the credit in the world, I would take Young 10 out of 10 times given the chance.

That said, Stet's stats were pretty darn good.

Granted he did make mistakes at inopportune times, but I think when people point out he struggled against Alabama they say it like Alabama is some scrub team.

Hat's off to Alabama. they had a lot of injuries (like us) and they went out there and improved over the course of the season. They were peaking in time for the playoffs, so it was a monumental fete for our team to beat them. We were missing a lot of players, too. Players we thought would make a huge impact.

A lot of people forget that we were also missing what many think/thought would be a first round pick in Adam Anderson. He was huge in pass rushing, something we needed badly for the SECCG and title game.

Do what? Are you delusional?

Arkansas:31/40 559 5 TD 0 Int
Florida: 22/35 240 3 TD 0 Int
A&M. 28/48 369 3 TD 1 Int

Auburn: 29/51 317 2 TD 1 Into
(worst game but was sacked 6 times and his OL was arse most of the year)

Good lord.Bryce threw for almost 5,000 yards and 47 TD's. And didn't finish with a higher QBR

Because he was the best player in the country and deserved it

Absolutely correct and your post is example 1A.Arent you the guy who continually shits all over Aaron Murray? Talk about seeing what you want to see
