Cdog923 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 At the risk of going against my instincts, I'll take this seriously. It all depends on what style of offense you're running. If you're going a Solich or Pelini style, give me Tommy. A Callahan/Riley style? Give me Taylor. Quote Link to comment
Roger Dorn Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Zac Taylor is probably the best QB we’ve had in the last 15 years Quote Link to comment
lo country Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Zac was one of the toghest QB's to play at NU. Dude got hit so hard, I felt it. Really depends on O scheme as they are two completely different QB's....Maybe Taylor vs Lee? Quote Link to comment
Scarlet Overkill Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Taylor was one tough SOB, and TA had the heart of a lion. Can't bring myself to choose one. Quote Link to comment
bugeater17 Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Taylor all day long and it’s not even close. 1 Quote Link to comment

Other than those two, we've had sooo many QBs that were like Jekyll and Hyde, 'what are we going to see this week?' Edited April 6, 2018 by Toe Quote Link to comment

TBH, those Jekyll and Hyde guys (mainly the last two before Lee) are the providers of most of the bright spots of the last 17 years. With the abysmal state of things, Taylor taking one 80 yards or a TA 99 yard YOLO has been about as good as its gotten round here since 2001. Yes they provided bad moments as well, but the whole team has had bad moments repeatedly for a long time also. 2 Quote Link to comment

Landlord Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Zac was a warrior who took the hardest hits I've ever seen a quarterback take. Tommy was a warrior who completely broke his body and still laid his broken body on the line every weekend for this team. Zac went from quite mediocre to Big XII Offensive Player of the Year. Tommy gave us four solid, respectable years, but wasn't much better his senior year compared to his freshman year. Zac had a gutsy bowl win, but otherwise came up short in the biggest games in his short career (OU, Texas, Auburn). Tommy had a good bowl win, more bad losses, but more memorable clutch moments in a much longer career. By the measurables, I'd take Zac, but by the heart and the entertainment factor I'd take Tommy. 4 Quote Link to comment

Well said. Echos my sentiments. Quote Link to comment

He delivered that ball knowing he was going to get smashed, he did it over and over again, and put everything he had into each throw and they usually were on target. And he came up here from Norman Oklahoma. to do it. 1 Quote Link to comment
TGHusker Posted April 6, 2018 Share Posted April 6, 2018 Zac was the player that made the BC years 1/2 bearable. He was a coach on the team and was one of my favorite all time QBs - just for his toughness, smarts on the field and having to make up for some of BC's play calling. TA - every pass was an adventure but I admire his heart. Quote Link to comment
