Rank the LSU QB Starters since 2000

My opinion based upon combination of championships, wins, abilities, and stats. (Link below has their stats)
1. Joe Burrow
2. Matt Mauck
3. Matt Flynn
4. Jamarcus Russell
5. Rohan Davey
6. Danny Etling
7. Zack Mettenberger
8. Max Johnson
9. Myles Brennan
10. Marcus Randall
11. Jarrett Lee
12. Jordan Jefferson
13. Brandon Harris
14. TJ Finley
15. Josh Booty
16. Anthony Jennings
Their stats
LINK /
I would have ranked Booty higher but his stats surprised me at being the following:
Passing: 307-of-623 (49.3%), 3,951 yds, 24 TD, 34 INT
Rushing: 53 attempts, -83 yds
I put Mauck and Flynn ahead because they won championships, Russell didn’t. Also, though not totally relevant to their LSU careers, Mauck and Flynn had longer NFL careers than Russell. Russell was admittedly the greater talent.
A head to head comparison of stats someone posted between the Matts convinced me to flip Mauck above Flynn.

Meh, based on what they both did that seems fair.
Booty is too low. So is Davey.

Jamarcus is #2, Mett is 6, Etling is not top 10, Johnson and Brennan are in the late teens.
Yeah Booty is top 10 or 12. He was all conference his Jr year.

Booty was better than TJ, and max for sure. I’d also take him over Harris, JJ and Lee

Jefferson, Jennings, and Harris should be 16a, 16b, and 16c.

2000 was a different era of offense. He is easily better than JJ, Jennings, Harris, hatch

Booty's first year (99) was bad, but his 00 was a lot better (honestly not a great year for SEC QBs though). He was All SEC (by the writers I think), but still got benched for Ro in the Peach Bowl.
