Remember when Josh Rosen was a Heisman Candidate and Pac-12 best QB?

Good times.

My favorite College Football Tradition is the Week 1 media overreaction.

Denard Robinson used to win the Heisman every September.

People were so high on them after they crushed a terrible Arizona team.

+1 for Kenny Trill.

Also John David Booty and Joe McKnight:

The media wanted to crown Matt Barkley Heisman, #1 draft pick, greatest QB ever when they beat Ohio State in the Shoe in 2009 because they scored on a last minute drive.

Barkley threw like, one pass on that final drive. McKnight did all the work but Barkley got 100% of the credit. No wonder that team lost 5 games that year, probably a lot of locker room tension for Barkley being the darling of that winning drive.

I know the Rosen hype was way over the top, but I did like his physical attributes last night. Although some dumb mistakes (early pick 6) are frustrating, gotta remember he is a true freshman playing in a solid conference.

He's still impressive as hell for a true freshman in his 6th start or whatever

He's still having an incredible true freshman season and will probably have a great career at UCLA. His defense sucks arse, so that doesn't help much. I would love to have him at LSU.

Barkley is complete garbage and all hype. Rosen actually has talent

It's like people can't make up their mind on whose alter I am. I see a new name floated every day

How about this - I am no one's alter.

i think they are making a mistake throwing him to the wolves like they are now and are messing up his confidence. he's really a year away from being able to adjust to the speed. but he's got all the tools
