re: Harris plays well we win the national championship, right?

As you start to mature out of these early phases of being a sports fan, you'll start to value the role that other factors beyond the quarterback's performance that determines whether or not teams win national championships.

Look no further than the number of teams picked in the preseason to win a national championship that actually do.

It happens in baseball and basketball more often because of regression to the mean. They play more games in these other sports, and have a championship series that enables them to lose a game or more and still have a championship season. In basketball you have 5 players on the court at any given moment. Since you have the best 5-7 players that contribute most to performance, you have fewer things that can go wrong. It's easier for a smaller group of players to perform as a well oiled machine than it is in football where there are 11 players on offense, another 11 on defense and another set on special teams.

So keep up your spirits little fella. One of these days when you become a grownup, you'll come to appreciate the more complex variables and intangibles that need to align in order for a national championship to occur.

The inexperience of a qb severly cuts down on the ability to use the entire playbook.

Inexperience, right.

7 of the last 8 national champions have had first-year starters at QB.

8 of the last 9 years, first-year starting QBs in the SEC have won the SEC, the national championship, and/or the Heisman.

Never forget the all-important EYE TEST as decided by experts like Rece Davis Witherspoon.

Nothing matters as much as the eye test, even regular season wins in the opponents stadium.

This doesn't carry as much weight as you suggest.
Some of these had at least a couple years experience as college QB and a 4th/5th yr Sr isn't inexperienced just because he hasn't been a starter for a year(ie Flynn).
I recall a time when the natural progression was most all QBs had 3+ yrs in a system as 1st yr starters unless injury forced early PT.

You just wont let it go. You are the only ignorant frick in the entire world that think youth and inexperience at the qb position doesnt matter.
There is over 100 years of football proving this but no you choose the outliers as if they are not the outliers. If youth and inexperience dont matter then why dont all these rookie nfl qbs light the world on fire?
Why do coaches sit rookie qbs for a few years? Is it because inexperience and youth at the qb position dont matter or is it because inexperience and youth at the qb position do matter.
And for the record you football ignorant child,there is difference between an older 1st year starter and a true sophomore.

Whats really laughable is all these lsu qbs you shite on are better at playing qb than you are at doing anything in life.
Jordan jefferson was better at playing qb than you are at anything in life.jarret Lee as a true freshman was better at qb than you are at anything youve ever done.

But by all means continue to be the 1 dumb frick that thinks true freshman and 5th seniors should be at the same production.

You just make yourself look void if anh football knowledge wheb you say a qbs experience and youth dont matter

There is no use with that ignorant frick. He and Peej are , literally, the only two people ove ever heard say inexperience and youth at the qb position doesnt matter. My 9 year old son knows this about football. It's true at every level of football. Its common knowldge. Really it just lets me know i can ignore any other opinions he has on cfb.

You can twist my words all you want, but I've NEVER said inexperience and youth don't matter. And I've already said numerous times that I'd prefer to have a 4th or 5th year guy at QB.

My point is that while experience is certainly preferred, IT ISN'T REQUIRED to get productive QB play!!

Young and inexperienced qbs playing well are the outliers. Literally evey single coach, at every level of football,agrees with me.
You also are acting like a true sophomore starting is the same as redshirt junior or 5th year senior.
In a prostyle offense you have 1 young and experienced qb to LEAD his team on a title run. Winston. Who are all these young and inexperienced prostyle qbs having huge amount of success?

Mettenberger played well but that team didn't come close to winning a natl champhionship

No he didn't. He singlehandedly lost the Ole Mis game, and he failed to deliver in the closing minute against Georgia.

LSU finished ranked higher in offensive yards per game and offensive yards per play than FSU ( great Jimbo that made winston),Auburn ( great malzahn that made cam),and a&m ( the great sumlin that made manziel) this year. Where are all these great offensive minds that cant get their offenses ranked ahead of this archaic offense at lsu?
ETA:
Down vote all you want but a Miles coached offense ranked higher ,in offensive yards per game, than the offensive geniuses like Jimbo,Sumlin,and Malzahn.
