It's entirely possible no one is good. Seriously, has anyone really stood out this year?

 

Maybe Baylor. Need to see them play someone still.

Utah too although Oregon is apparently terrible so that win looks slightly less awesome.

Goff is terrible. Is it true that some fools think he will be an NFL star?

I'm friends with a Bears fan that is totally in the tank for him and is mildly annoyed that the Bears are probably not bad enough to take him at #1.

Goff isn't terrible. He's just not a #1 pick worthy guy. He's somewhere between Derek Carr and Matt Ryan. He's not as good of a prospect as Winston and Mariota were last year, but he's not as bad as the Geno Smith, EJ Manuel class of QBs. If drafts were 100% based on picking the best player available, he's probably right in the middle of the 1st round, IMO. But the fact that he's a QB (and the top QB at that), he'll probably go somewhere in the top 8.

Bret Bielema is a really, really bad game manager. I should have have listened to you guys.

 

He's like Orgeren in a way-good recruiter, great motivator, but not a good Saturday coach. This Arkansas team can't get out of its own way.

What can I say, he was a catastrophe last night yeah it was a road game but 5 ints speak very loudly against him.

 

Maybe if he wasn't being pumped by some as a polished NFL-ready QB I'd feel different.

 

What I saw was a guy who has a ton of work to do. Yes I do know it's one game.

He's not a polished NFL-ready QB. There'll be a learning curve since he plays in such a vastly different offensive scheme than anything he'll run in the NFL.

Same thing said about Mariota and Cam Newton. But I do agree, but simply because he's not as good as them; not because of his college offense.
