I guess we'll see what Fields does this year but I've been consistent with my opinion that you can't win a natty in the modern era without an x-factor under center.
Alabama won NCs with Jake Coker, Greg McElroy, and A J McCarron as QB. Not much X factor for any of those.

We damn near won a Natty with Fromm under center. Fromm wasn't the reason we lost that game.

Ok but that's just Bama, what about the other teams that have beaten Bama?
Deshaun Watson
Cardale Jones
Money Manziel
Cam Newton
Nick Marshall
Stidham (he could run a lil)
Tim Tebow
Lawrence (not a burner but can buy time with his feet)
The data is pretty clear that teams with an x-factor give themselves a better chance to win. Fromm for all his gifts lacks that ability. That certainly doesn't mean he can't win but it makes it harder is all I'm saying.

Not much with Trevor Lawrence, either. Just a good old fashioned gunslinger.
