That’s ESPN you posted. I think PFF has their own.

Fair enough. I'd be interested in seeing PFF's criteria/methodology.. Because that's VASTLY different.

I mean... I'm not knocking their list - all of them had excellent performances this weekend. But not having Milroe on this list seems to me to be a glaring omission. Maybe they have a minimum throws requirement - Milroe only threw 9 times (7/9, 200 yds, 3 TDs, plus ran for 79 yds and 2 TDs.)

5 out of 10 have a 2 syllable first name and a 1 syllable last name.

If you’d have told me a year ago that Payton Thorne would be listed on anyone’s “top graded QB” rankings, I’d have accused you of losing your mind.

I think Oxford High School could have beaten Alabama A&M.

Maybe Jalen is not in their due to the limited number of attempts he had?

ESPN’s QBR is complete shite and there’s no rhyme nor reason to it.

PFF’s is much better - in theory at least. It’s probably is the grading is done by humans and humans will not be objective. A lot of their individual QB metrics are great though, it’s just the sum of those parts don’t always jive with their overall scores.

PFF seems to be hit or miss at best when it comes to grading most positions.

Same for Furman.

Wrong. Furman would have beaten everyone in the ACC not named Miami and then at least half the SEC.

We just made them look like a joke because of how good we are

Please list off the 8 SEC teams Furman would beat.

Wrong. You made them look like a joke because you’re a SEC program playing a FCS team. It’s what SEC teams are supposed to do in these sort of games. We don’t beat our chest about it though. And to do so is frankly embarrassing.

Only an Ole Miss fan would stoop to “my cupcake is better than your cupcake”.

He’s making a complete arse of himself and embarrassing the Ole Miss fanbase. Look, we all play at least one cupcake game a year. It’s good practice and gives the cupcake a nice payday to bankroll their program. But when we beat them down like a rented mule, we don’t beat our best over it because beating them down is what we’re expected to do. And we certainly don’t get delusions of grandeur about it.

And to claim Furman would beat “half the SEC” is just downright stupid.
