2013 QB Competition: Sams vs. Waters

[DQ12]

torrell has been kicking tons of ass lately. 

[Katpappy]

Jake Waters: 6/15 passing without TLBL to bail him out over and over again.

To be fair to both QBs, the best receiver with TLBL and TT out is Curry Sexton.

Sexton needs to get the ball thrown his way more often.  This kid as a large upside... he's white and from Kansas.  Who knew???

He has good hands and runs decent routes, but he can only break away from safeties. When you put your first or second best cover guy on him he can't get free. He needs TLBL and TT in the game in order to be any good.

I think Baylor wins the Big 12 now that Texas beat OU. Texas will not beat Baylor, and Baylor will not beat OU.

Why wouldn't Baylor beat OU? They did last year and they are better this year and OU is worse.

Baylor did not beat OU last year.  The only league game OU lost was to us.  But Baylor has them in Waco this year and I think they win that game for sure.  Nobody is going to beat them in Waco I doubt anyone plays them close there. I predict they lose at ok state or TCU or both.  They're not the same team on the road.

Since this is apparently the new big 12 champion thread I'm going out on a limb and saying I think tech can win this conference

How the eff does that even happen

Baylor isn't losing to TCU.  They're very mediocre.  Like even more than us.

No real great QBs this year...so it's hard to tell, imo

I was just thinking about this but I'm fairly certain that there are no senior starting QBs in the conference.

Petty will be gone though, not that it matters.

Case is a Sr
However
I  think Ash is a Jr

 Will be interesting if Mack  sticks with Case  as the season goes on

The list of spread QBs drafted early is very very short. I'd imagine the list of spread QBs with 1 year experience getting drafted early is non-existent.

Spread QB's with unbelievable passing yardage do not get drafted nor make it in the NFL from TTU.

Been thinking that for awhile.  Baylor - Tech game will be awesome, and will be on a neutral site.  I've got to watch that one.

Sams has the 8th best qb rating in FBS.  He will get better in the passing game with LBL and TripleEffinT back and more experience.

There is no qb competition IMHO. This season is worthless, so let's keep playing him so we can win the MNC in 2015 season.

[kslim]

Why do people keep saying this season is worthless?

I know it's disappointing but teams do carry over into the next year and we can still win 9 games
Not sure what the expectations were but any smart person knew we wouldn't repeat or win 11 games

it's really weird. I think this team is fun to watch and 7 or 8 wins would be fantastic at this point. It's definitely a billion times better than 09 and 10.

[Stevesie60]

The only reason I care if we got to a bowl or not is so we can get the extra practice time.
