Huh?

In conference play. Shoulda made that distinction that we weren't including games against Northeast Arkansas Tech.

 

A more fair comparison would be total offense because, as you pointed out, Reesing doesn't need to pass as much, but Daniel runs more.

 

I love that this season is turning people who were trained for objectivity at The Greatest Journalism School In The Known Universe into standard, everyday fanboys.

 

Can't throw out Kansas' NC sked any more than Ohio State's.

 

What does Ohio State have to do with comparing Chase Daniel and Todd Reesing?

 

The NE Arkansas Tech reference.

 

McFadden.

Don't make a shit how bad his team is, he's the best running back.

I hate everything Crimson and Cream, but I would take Sam Bradford before Chase Daniel.

 

I'm not sure what you expect to glean from comparing stats from games featuring overmatched opposition early in the season, but go ahead if it makes you feel better. This isn't an argument of Kansas vs. Missouri, it's Daniel against Reesing. And Daniel's been the better passer thus far.

 

Though maybe not necessarily the better player or quarterback.

 

I think NFL scouts would disagree, Oz.

 

Ahem. Don't put us all in the same boat, dude. There's a lot of objective people here.
