You know college football is in a sorry state when you have Braxton Miller and E.J. Manuel as two of the best quarterbacks.
HAHA….Two horrid passers (especially Miller).
They both play no desecnt defenses all year and still complete passes…What a joke!
The kid from UL Monroe is very impressive by the way!
You do know Miller was the passer of arguably the best catch in college football this year?
Buckeye that’s a terrible argument… If the throw had been better the catch wouldn’t have had to be so great. I think Miller is good but you made the counterpoint without even knowing it.
Miller is Pryor 2.0 OSU sucks
