For those not watching, Cam Ward played the first half of the Pop-Tarts Bowl, broke the record for most passing TDs in a D1 career, then took himself out at halftime in a competitive game with Iowa State.

Todd McShay’s thoughts:

I'm seeing a lot of comments saying Ward didn't take himself out, and that it was Cristobal's decision to get the backup QB meaningful snaps.

WR means a lot less than starting qb

I agree with it.

Those are valuable reps after a few weeks of good practice that you could give to the starter leading into spring ball next year.

If ISU scores here, does Ward come back for the final drive?

I appreciate that Cam Ward, in this day and age in CFB, played at all


Well it was stated in OP, he broke the record and then took himself out, that's why he played.

61.9% 3,393 19 tds 6 ints

69.7% 3,303 22 tds 8 ints

According to this board, one is a bust and one is a future HOFer.

Absolutely shameful compared to someone like this. Sr year, playing an absolute nobody and a guaranteed future top 10 pick. Literally put it all on the line and he wasn't even getting paid

And some idiot GM will still draft him high. And will pretend to be surprised when he busts.

The dude is getting paid now and quit at halftime. He is telling you who he is.
