Alabama Football: Ranking SEC Quarterbacks after week four
By Ronald Evans
After four weeks for Alabama Football and other SEC teams (five weeks for Vandy), the performance of SEC quarterbacks can be ranked with some accuracy. Though data through four games is a small sample, early-season trends are good indicators of how the SEC’s quarterbacks will perform in the middle third of the college football season.
Some subjective assessment was used in the rankings that follow, but they are primarily based on five sets of data: passing yards; passing completion percentage, rushing yards, touchdowns (passing and rushing) and interceptions.
The data sources are cfbstats.com and ESPN.
