The problem is trying to evaluate a 25 year old playing against 20 year olds.

I can see that issue with guys in weaker conferences.... but im not sure how much it matters in say the SEC...

 

Especially for the guys who are moving to better conferences and performing.

It matters a lot. There's a big difference between 25 year olds and 20 year olds. It's how guys like Brandon Weeden look like Tom Brady in college.

The whole "in the SEC" thing as if it's an entirely different level is just bunk. I mean, were all sitting here watching a Heisman winning Alabama QB look like a guy who doesn't belong on the NFL. The top few SEC teams are among the elite. The rest of the conference chants "SEC! SEC! SEC!" to ride their coattails.

Reputation.

UNC doesn't belong on the same field as UCF. This might end up even uglier than the TCU game.

He's just not a D1 QB. He's fuging terrible.

He had all the time in the world on that sack in a clean pocket but panicked and instead of going through his progression he scrambled himself into a sack. Belichick seems to really want a mobile QB for the college game but this guy isn't D1 mobile. He's just a small, bad passer who can't run against D1 defenses. He's walk on who doesn't get a jersey for road games caliber at this level.

I don’t know how you can continue to put Gio out there and tell any fans you are trying to win.  He simply isn’t good enough for this level.

I'd tell the kid before going back out there for the next drive that it's do or die. Make something happen here or we're making a change at QB.

Clemson sucks

Yeah, definitely the team is better on defense and he is killing us.

We still suck on D too. We just suck a slightly less.

The complete absence of any pass rush whatsoever in particular is very notable.
