Bonus: Texas - 2

* Transfer

** Todd replaced Namath and also posted a 0.0 passer rating

*** Only player to post a 0.0 passer rating in back to back games

**** Only game where both starting QBs posted a 0.0 passer rating (Defeated Atlanta, QBed by Bob Lee)

^ Broke Brett Favre's record for NFL career passing yards in this game; later benched. Record no longer stands.

I know a lot of UGA history but have never heard of Rick Arrington.

A brief wiki search says he was at UGA 2 years then transferred to Tulsa for 3 years. I'd probably count him as a Tulsa QB.

Also fun wiki fact: he is the dad of jill arrington. So thanks for that Rick!

Yeah. I couldn't exactly find any clips of him on Youtube claiming Tulsa or UGA when being introduced on a CBS broadcast in 1970.

The Rex Grossman 0.0 game was the final week of the season and he only played the first half because the Bears had the #1 seed locked. He still played like arse for that half but just thought I'd qualify it.
