ESPN Re-Ranks Every Power 4 Quarterback This Season

LSU quarterback Garrett Nussmeier was poised to have a big season in his final year in Baton Rouge, but has fallen short of expectations.

Nussmeier was projected to be one of the top quarterbacks in college football this season and a high draft pick, but is now ranked No. 40 out of all Power 4 quarterbacks, according to ESPN:

---

40. Garrett Nussmeier, LSU
Last Rank: 37
Total QBR: 72.7
Pass Yds: 1,927
Rush Yds (no sack): 78
Total TDs: 13

Woof. The good news for Nussmeier is that, when he was benched in favor of Michael Van Buren Jr. late against Alabama last week, nothing really improved. The bad news is that this has been an epic wasted year for the fifth-year senior and preseason All-America candidate. He has barely seemed healthy all season, and his offensive line regressed significantly.
