You two are my favorite sports podcast to watch. I am probably your longest distance listener. I'm a relocated Vols fan now living in Pranburi, Thailand.
GO VOLS!!

Since the inception of the CFP, the AP poll has always given the cfp pollsters a starting point of how to vote. the cfp poll directly mimics the AP poll.

To RD’s point about letting a 1st rd. Draft pick that I was glad to see atl do with cousins and petits.. roll tide… rise up and chop on !!!!

I would literally bet my life Carson beck will not be a good nfl qb

[jamalj]

Man it's shadeur it's not really close best pure passer anticipation placement throwing guys open it factor not scared of the big moment

The top QBs are as follows:
1. Carson Beck - He can't play defense. He's done everything he can for this team, and with a competent secondary, Georgia would be undefeated after a 1 point comeback victory.
2. Drew Allar - He's just like J.J. McCarthy last season going unheralded and winning games, which is a quarterback's job.
3. Brady Cook - He's doing everything right, and if he can go into College Station as an underdog and pull off an upset, he'll deserve serious Heisman consideration.
4. Kurtis Rourke - He's carried Indiana to an undefeated record, and he has the prototypical build of an NFL quarterback. We are extremely impressed with Mr. Rourke.
5. Riley Leonard - The mark of a great leader is how you respond to adversity. Notre Dame has looked untouchable since the Northern Illinois game thanks to this young man.
