Flynn put up far and away the worst stats out of every QB to win a BCS National Championship.

McElroy put up far better numbers in 2009 than Flynn did in 2007
Flynn had more TDs and just slightly fewer yards, while playing in 2 less games. Flynn had more ypg (meaning he helped his team move the ball more than GMac). The completion percentages are fairly close, as are the ypa. McElroy was slightly more efficient, but he wasn't asked to actually win games. Flynn actually had to sling it from time to time (which is the reason for his higher ypg/TDs and lower completion percentage).
You are full of shite because Flynn did not have far and away the worst season of any BCSNC winning QB. You could argue that he did, but I could also argue that GMac did as well. That alone means that someone else is close and Matt Flynn isn't far and away anything (except for being far and away a better NFL QB than GMac).

Listen, I'm not a Flynn hater. My personal opinion is that he was a middle of the road BCS national championship winning QB. I thought he was a better QB than Matt Mauck and Chris Leak and Tee Martin and he was certainly a better QB than Greg McElroy and Craig Krenzel. However, his numbers were clearly the worst of all the BCS national championship QBs. He averaged a yard less per pass attempt than the second worst QB (McElroy). His TD/INT ratio was the worst among all BCS Championship winning QBs. He has the worst QB rating. Statistically, it's hard to name anybody that was worse.

Let's settle this.
09 GMAC was undefeated, Flynn wasn't.
