Peyton gets all the recognition but Martin actually beat Florida and won the Natty and yet you hardly ever hear him mentioned. Crazy.

Yeah, Tee made me realize the importance of a dual threat QB in college where you have limited practice time and only a few years to capitalize your talent and those around you.
The prototypical Payton style QB is more valuable over long time in the pros.

The 1998 Florida team wasn't nearly as good as the Florida teams Peyton played and anyone who watched both teams knows why Tee Martin didn't get as much pub as Peyton. Martin was 7/20 for 64 yards in the 1998 Florida game. Florida honestly dominated the box score in that game but lost. Martin didn't carry Tennessee to victory in really any game in that season.

Tee Martin was good but he gets lost in the shuffle because his stats were pretty middle of the road. I don't think he was close to top 20 in QB stats for anything other than maybe TDs. And I remember that TN/FL game. Tennessee's offense was terrible and I am pretty sure Martin didn't even hit 100 yards passing. They won because Al Wilson went off.
