Lack of QB play in SEC?

It doesn't seem like the SEC produces as much qb talent as other conferences (pac12,big10,big12). There are obviously exceptions (Cam and the Mannings to name a few). Why is this? Does it make the defenses look better on a week to week basis?

Ive heard this complain from northerners and west coasters. I think it's total bullshite in my opinion because when these great QBs have faced SEC defenses they've lost anyways.

It's all about perception, really.
Non-SEC fans look at our QB's and see weak QB play.
SEC fans look at our QB's and realize the types of defenses they are playing against.

Were I a great QB prospect, I wouldn't want to play in the SEC. CFB caliber o-lines vs. NFL caliber Ds.
No thanks.

Well, let's not forget Matt Stafford and Jason Campbell were atrocious SEC quarterbacks until their last year. Maybe it has something to do with defensive talent?

I'd be willing to bet that the SEC has more starting QBs than anyone else.

Matthew Stafford
Eli Manning
Cam Newton
Tim Tebow
Rex Grossman
Peyton Manning (starter before injury)
Jason Campbell (starter befor injury)
So seven teams out of 32 total teams were rocking with SEC QBs. Now just five due to injury. I wouldn't say that is a bad percentage.

In August I posted on this board that the SEC had an unusual number of QB turnover. Other years we were more QB rich. It's a cycle.

It usually does, but this season I'd say the SEC Qb's suck.
