Jefferson is hands down a better quarterback, he has just been playing average competition this year. If he plays LSU's schedule, he doesn't have all the praise he's been given.

With all due respect to our true freshman QB, you are goofy stupid!

pryor's mechanics are really lacking

that is an understatement...they are totally nonexistant. I only saw the second half but it's obvious that Pryor needs a ton of work. man, it's got to be tough to be a buckeye tonite...almost feel sorry for them...almost.

Agree that JJ's arm is better than Pryor's, but not the wheels. Pryor just glides across the field. He covers about 5 yards in less than a step it seems like. I think his speed is very deceptive.

I was thinking the same thing. Pryor with all his experience he got this year didn't look very good at all throwing the ball. Count me in for JJ

Look, when they gotta bring in Boeckman to complete passes, that is not a great sign.

JJ is a better QB. Love his decision making. TP is just a better athlete.

Not really. Maybe a little better, but not much.

Gliding across the field deceptively fast doesn't help as much when you run out of bounds 2 yards before the first down without any danger ahead. This cost OSU at least one series.

Exactly.

The guy is so afraid to take a hit it is criminal.

Hands down I believe JJ is better than Pryor. After watching the game tonight in clutch passing plays it was the other QB throwing the ball and he threw better. Pryor's throws weren't that impresive. I can see him getting better and looking great in the Big can't count to 11 conference but I don't think he is at JJ's level in the SEC IMO.

2008 Passing Defense

Texas may have a better offense, but their defense isn't better. GT is ranked 44 in Passing Defense while Texas is ranked 60. So, it appears that JJ was playing against a tougher pass defense than Pryor. Also, the reason Texas' run defense is ranked second is because they haven't played anyone that runs the ball. Out of 120 teams, Texas had the least number of rushes attempted on them. There were only 317 rush attempts against Texas. The average of all 120 teams is 457 attempts.

Pryor is bigger than JJ or RS and runs like Usane Bolt. JJ reads the pocket well and RS has lightning quick change of direction. All of them make excellent decisions instintively, that can't be taught. Our One Two Punch may be better than TP, but he is perhaps more refined than either now. I thought he looked great last night. He even caught a fade for a touchdown. Now that is versitility!

I am hoping Shepard is as good as Pat White was at West Virginia. In about three years we should know.

He looked great because nobody touched him. He runs out of bounds with no defender within ten yards.
With his running ability, if he would have cut back a few times he had a chance of scoring. Instead he steps out of bounds.

Dude, seriously.
Take a step back, read what you posted, and tell me where the faulty logic lies.
