re: Who was the better CFB QB? J Daniels / L Jackson

8. Lamar Jackson, Louisville
Years: 2015-17
Stats: 9,043 passing yards, 57% completion rate, 69 TD, 27 INT, 4,132 rushing yards, 50 rushing TD
At the start of the century, Clemson's Woody Dantzler pulled off the first 2,000/1,000 season. Less than two decades later, Jackson was posting back-to-back 3,500/1,500s. He was a solid passer and the most terrifying runner at the QB position since Michael Vick. And that hurdle. Oh, that hurdle.

19. Jayden Daniels, Arizona State/LSU
Years: 2019-23
Stats: 12,750 passing yards, 66% completion rate, 89 TD, 20 INT, 3,307 rushing yards, 34 TD
The ultimate late bloomer. After four solid but unspectacular seasons at ASU and LSU, the scrambling, gambling Daniels achieved a higher plane of existence in 2023, damn near combining 4,000 passing yards with 1,000 rushing yards in only 12 games.
