Only Ole Miss would retire his Jersey and have the speed limit as his #18.
Best SEC finish was 4th.
His best game still lost to the worst Alabama team under Bryant.
Say he was at Alabama with his record he would have been Bryant's worst or 2nd worst qb.

ESPN used to love to show Archie up in the stands when Peyton and Eli were playing. He usually had those goofy, yellow radio/headphones on.
I offered my buddy $1000 to go knock those off of Archies head at the 2001 Egg Bowl. Not real proud of that and all I have to offer to this thread

Dude, there's more to QB than just the W/L record, considering that you're only 1 of 22 players.
Archie was probably the most snakebit player to end up on teams well below his ability. The Saints he played on may have had the worst OLs in history - his rookie season he was sacked on over 18% of passing attempts.
The loss to Kentucky in 1969 is pretty unforgivable, but that was by 1 point, as was the loss to Alabama.
Manning led his team in rushing and passing and scoring. I doubt he could have done more to get his team to win.

I'm not a fan of the Manning's. They've done great things, but I agree than some hype is too much.

Mississippi State would name their school after him if he played there
He won a Sugar Bowl

Wasn't Eli's best season 9 wins and a split division title?

Archie was athletic as piss. Those Ole Miss teams he played on weren’t the great teams of the 50’s and 60’s. In fact, it wasn’t long after Archie left( a year or so) that Ole Miss fell off the map as a national power and haven’t been close to returning. There is a reason he was on the front of SI, and so highly touted. Archie had a cannon also.

Jared Lorenzen > Archie Manning

Jeeeeezus....
Archie is a legend and should be.
What he did at Ole Miss and with the Saints, with the teams he played on is unreal.
Ask former coaches and players what they thought of him.
Too many young punks on this board that don’t know shite.

Thanks

anyone knocking Archie's Ole Miss tenure is crazy. They were as good as any team in the country at the end of the 1969 season and had he not broken his arm midway in his SR year he very well would have won the Heisman.
Don't get too wrapped up in his stats. Its odd you mention Bryant as Archie was 2-1 vs Coach Bryant,the one loss that epic 33-32 game. Coach Bryant would tell you you were nuts,too.
Archie was a great player and remains a class act and ambassador to the SEC and college football in general.

Only a Miss State fan would be this jealous of Archie Manning.

Dude was basically John Elway before John Elway coming out of Ole Miss, had all the tangibles and intangibles good leader for an otherwise sucky Ole Miss team surrounding him

He finished 4th in 69 and 3rd in 70 for the Heisman. If he doesn’t break his arm he easily wins it in 70. STFU you stupid neck.
