Re: Official 2013 NCAA College Football Thread

I'm really hoping Stanford goes undefeated or at least beats Oregon. That defense is one of the best defenses in the nation, probably just as good as Bamas D this year. Really hoping the skins get either skov or Reynolds. Both are athletic and looks like they would be good pros.

I like bridgewater. He looked a lot like luck coming out where he just seems to know what the defense is doing at all times and goes through his reads extremely efficiently and quickly. There will probably some quarterback that comes our of no where like RG3/newton and becomes the second quarterback taken behind bridgewater.

Teddy Bridgewater looks as good, if not better, than RG3 did in his Heismann year..

He's playing against you and me cult.
Griffin played on one of the worst teams in history and changed that program around playing against power houses such as Oklahoma and Texas not Ohio. I think he is a solid player but let's wait and see what he does against good talent

As for Griffin, his Heisman year was insane, he had like 4 games where he had more tds than incompletions.

To be honest the Big 12 had some really bad defenses that year and Texas wasn't nearly as good as they used to be. But with that said RG3 threw more TD's than incompletions for the first couple of games that year and was amazing.

Louisville did play Florida with Florida having an entire team filled of pros and Bridgewater looked like the best player on the field. The Sugar Bowl proved a lot to me in terms of his ability since Bridgewater won't get the opportunity to play top teams that often.

With that said lets give Bridgewater some time and see what he does. I think he will prove to be a great college QB. Tough as any QB and one of the smartest QB's I have ever seen. That includes Luck, Wilson and Ryan who I thought were highly intelligent college QBs.

Ah yes, I forgot about RG3 having more TD's than incompletions. That was definitely eye opening.

Problem is that right now Bridgewater has as many TDs and Incompletions.

T. Bridgewater 23/28 355 12.7 5 1 97.2

The big difference is RG3 went against TCU his first game, Bridgewater went against Ohio. I like Bridgewater, but I think it is too early to compare his year to RG3's year. Bridgewater looks a lot like Luck in terms of what he brings to the game. I think RG3 is more talented than both of them but both Luck and Bridgewater in college have the ability to diagnose plays quicker and more efficiently. Bridgewater will be a very good or great pro.

Re: Official 2013 NCAA College Football Thread

I normally hate when teams stray from their team colors for black for no real reason other than a fashion statement, but for a team called the Pirates, black just fits. (a lot better than purple too)

Re: Official 2013 NCAA College Football Thread

The Raiders should draft Bridgewater, but they probably won't.

The Jets will get Clowney.
