who from a list of GA quarterbacks would you want to lead your team. You can't go by stats alone or championships alone. There's more to it than that.


Yeah I realize that. And Belue might crack my top 10.

Hell of a baseball player, but he simply wasn't that good of a QB. His entire reputation is based on one single play, in which he threw it about 15 yards and the receiver did the rest. He had some other moments (78 tech for instance, which gets overlooked), but in general he just wasn't very good. Put it this way, if Buck didn't have Herschel to hand it to 30 times a game, where would he go down in UGA lore? Honestly people probably wouldn't even remember him. In the biggest game of his entire UGA career, he went 1 for 12 for 7 yards.

BS...always finished in the top 3 in SEC in passing efficiency.

Best yeat was '81
2nd in the NCAA and 1st in the SEC with 148.8 rating

Also was 2nd in the SEC in TD passes.

Not sure who or what you're comparing em to or
just remember his bad games but Belue was a very
goob QB while at UGA.You can only compare him to
those he played against and the era that he played.
