A good QB is good.
lol. what happened to winning 7 games? Beck is going to be the first QB picked and a top 10 pick in the 2025 NFL draft- only guy who has a shot to overtake him is Deion's kid- but Beck is bigger with a stronger arm, more protoype. He's the best QB that Jawjaw has had since Stafford.

Speaking of QB's, Cade Klubnik stunk last year and still stinks. I don't know what is up with Dabo, but he hit absolute home runs back to back with Deshaun Watson and Trevor Lawerence and every other highly ranked QB he's had since those guys have been pretty mid. DJU was a 5* #1 QB in his class. So was Cade Klubnik. Hunter Johnson was a 5* #2 QB in his class. Yikes.

Va Tech Vandy tied, so something competitive is on
VaTech found itself some SEC apparently.

Fornelli over at CBS Sports has been saying all off-season that Nico is going to be the best QB in all of college football. he called Caleb Williams being that before he ever really played a down. might be right again here.
I don’t know about all that, but they have a tendency of just absolutely laying it on lower division teams. Granted, they might stop scoring this quarter, but they’re pretty close.

It’s not Cade Klubnik’s fault. Clemson has not developed QBs since signing Trevor Lawrence who, getting by on sheer talent and an elite receiving corps, was able to mask Clemson not developing players across the offensive side of the roster - QB, RB, WR, OL.

Meanwhile, since then Clemson’s offensive coordinator’s salary has increased to almost $2M. None of their receivers are taller than 5’10”. And the bulk of Clemson’s higher profile recruiting is focused to the DL & LBs. Offense is a known probably that isn’t getting fixed at Clemson.

something is clearly off with Clemson and it's QB development/offense.

Raiola showing some nice touch on the ball.  Do the Huskers finally have themselves a QB?

kind of surprised Ohio State hasn't been able to do much running between the tackles. 

Howard has thrown a couple nice passes and looks good running it.
