Another Michael Penix Jr. Thread

I got a question.

If Penix goes out against Michigan without his starting RB, and start slinging dimes..and wins! Will he be remembered on this board as a legend? I would say so.

He's a great player. A lot had to go right for this thing to end up the way it did. There is not an elite team in this playoff.

It's already giving off a couple of delusions.

1. Belief: Things have changed with NIL and portal and it's all even/steven. Truth: We will find out next year that's BS.

2. Belief: The SEC is not what it once was. Truth: We put a flawed team in this year, that while possibly the most talented roster wise, had the weakest QB play of the bunch in the playoff. That's never a good recipe to win the whole thing.

It would be cool if he did.

I actually saw him play back when he was in Indiana. I was like damn this QB is good, but he needs to fix his throwing mechanics. I feel dumb now about it. And the announcers said something like, “this kid has the potential to be a first rounder after a few years with development”. I think he definitely played himself into the 1st Round (depending on how he finishes) after all. And that’s something bc this year is a very crowded NFL QB draft class imo.

He is deadly accurate. If he had played the way he played Monday in every game, he'd have a better argument for Heisman. Had some struggles in the middle of the season. Daniels won and he should have. That shouldn't take away from Penix, but somehow in the world we live in it does. Today's world leaves us with one champion/winner and everyone else is shite.

This is what I have been trying to explain to people. It is perfectly ok for more than one player to have exceptional seasons, and that is what we have here. You cant take anything away from Daniels or Penix. But the award is an INDIVIDUAL award and when you look at the INDIVIDUAL statistics, its not even close. That does not mean I think Penix is garbage. That kid is a fricking baller, he was just the second best baller this year.
