44 completions on 87 attempts (51% completion rate)
1 TD, 3 INTs
Passer rating of 81.2
337 total passing yards (112 yards per game)
Leading his team's offense to 15.7 PPG in the last 3 games in his 3rd season as a starter.
55 completions on 100 passes (55%)
3 TDs , 5 INTs
Passer rating of 94.6
485 total passing yards (162 yards per game)
Leading his team to 24 PPG in the last 3 games of his 1st season as a starter (possibly with a severe shoulder injury).
QB number one is a pre-season Heisman Trophy candidate.
QB number two is a player who has fans in his own base who give him no chance to ever succeed.
...But, but, but, JT Barrett comes up big running the ball...Well, his last three games= 228 yards (76 yards per game) 1 TD, 3.5 YPC
So for those who want to cherry pick Wilton Speight's last three games to define his future career, they also must use the same measurements and make the same assumptions for Barrett, who has been trending downward for the last three years.
I'll admit the point I make may seem a bit silly- Of course JT Barrett is one of the nation's top college QBs, but, I really just wanted to illustrate how silly cherry picking a player's three worst games of the season is in order to make an overall judgement on that player's ability.
