B.B. Hemingway Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Tebow should be higher than the 64 seed, but Sanders wins this easily.... 1 Link to comment
knapplc Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 Tebow is lucky to even be included here. I wouldn't have had him on at all, honestly. I don't think he's remotely in the top 64 college players, all time. Link to comment

beanman Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 Anyone who votes for Tebow here should be banned from Huskerboard. I don't think Tebow should be any higher than what he is. I always thought he was overrated and Florida just had a great team. Chris Leak probably thinks the same. 1 Link to comment

I'm just saying that I thought Tebow was a fantastic college QB, who was second to none when it came to leadership.... Stats don't tell the whole story in college football. If they did, Frazier wouldn't be anywhere on this list either.... Link to comment

I feel that the incredible amount of undeserved "NFL" attention Tebow has received, has in some way tarnished his incredible collegiate career.... Link to comment
StPaulHusker Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 I agree with RollinRock. 2 Heisman finalist finishes with one win and 2 NC as a starting QB with the numbers he put up was worthy of being considered one of the best college players ever. Link to comment
knapplc Posted June 17, 2013 Author Share Posted June 17, 2013 Tebow had a fine college career. He was a standout player on a standout team. But there have been, literally, hundreds of players like Tebow through the years. Tebow benefits from the recency effect in much the same way that Ndamukong Suh benefits over Rich Glover. I get that his stats are gaudy, and he played QB of a very good team. But he benefited from a system that featured him greatly - much like Eric Crouch circa 2001. Link to comment

The system did benefit him as you said, but not the same way the systems do at Hawaii/SMU, or Houston.... He was putting up impressive numbers against some of the best teams in the country.... Again, I'm not trying place him on college football's Mt. Rushmore, but he is deserving to be on this prestigious list.... 1 Link to comment

Mavric Posted June 17, 2013 Share Posted June 17, 2013 QB1 - Passing - 661/995, 66.4%, 9,285 yards, 9.3 ypa, 88 TDs, 16 INTs, 170.8 rating Rushing - 692 carries, 2,947 yards, 4.3 ypa, 57 TDs 2 National Titles, 3 BCS Bowl victories, MVP of two BCS bowls, Heisman winner, Also finished #3 and #5 in Heisman voting QB2 - Passing - 232/469, 49.5%, 3,521 yards, 7.5 ypa, 43 TDs, 11 INTs, 138.1 rating Rushing - 342 carries, 1,955 yards, 5.7 ypa, 36 TDs 2 National Titles, MVP of three straight de facto national championship games, Heisman Runner-up By what merits does QB2 deserve a lofty ranking on this list while QB1 barely deserves to be on it? I believe the same arguments about being a "system" QB that was only good in the college game are applied to both. 2 Link to comment
