| 0:00.0 | Brian, we're rolling here on the Irish Breakdown podcast, |
| 0:18.6 | Brought to buy our friends over at Fandu. |
| 0:20.2 | We've got the midweek rundown going on right now, and we're going to broaden our scope a little bit. We're going to take today's show home next two segments. We're talking college football. Big picture, and two former quarterbacks are going to sit here and talk about quarterbacks in college football. And we're sorting them out into two different segments. First, we're talking about the five underrated quarterbacks in college football, followed up by the five most overrated quarterbacks in college football. |
| 0:43.5 | Now, window in a couple of different disclaimers here. |
| 0:47.5 | And Brian, please add anything that I've left out here. |
| 0:50.1 | First, this isn't a ranking one through five. |
| 0:53.0 | Like this isn't, no, you know, this is my number one most underrated quarterback versus like my number five most underrated quarterback. |
| 0:59.4 | It's just five guys, no specific order. |
| 1:02.0 | The other thing that I want people to keep in mind here, too, these lists are relative. |
| 1:05.6 | I know terms like underrated versus overrated, they can get skewed by the connotation of the word. |
| 1:11.2 | You hear overrated and you think that, oh, so that guy sucks. |
| 1:15.4 | No, they are overrated relative to how people talking to them. |
| 1:19.4 | As you'll find out, sometimes it does. |
| 1:22.6 | But most of the kids we talk about is that's not it. |
| 1:26.1 | No, no, man. |
| 1:44.5 | And that's the thing. It's like last year, for example, we said Archmanning was overrated, not for who he was as a talent, but how people were talking about number one Corby's lead Texas to the Natty. They're going undefeated. He's winning the highs men. He's getting the best prospects. In that sense, he was over. The expectations were unfair for him. He was never going to live up to that. So in that sense, you're correct. And we thought very highly of him, but we considered him an overrated player last year. And we said that this will be the year that he has the true breakout. And that's what he's on the verge of doing. So yeah. which is why he's not on either of these lists for us this year. But we do have some very |
| 2:04.2 | interesting conversation here, not to the surprise of many people. Brian and I have a lot of |
| 2:09.3 | similarities within our list and actually are. You'll find that out in the next part. |
| 2:14.6 | Which is interesting because I didn't give Trevor super clear instructions, |
| 2:19.1 | and it's intentional on what overrated meant and what underrated meant. I didn't tell them |
| 2:23.7 | what lists to use. I told him what lists I was using after he had sent his list in. And so, |
| 2:30.4 | but again, these things are, like you said, there's, and we have different reasoning for what we view as underrated and overrated, which we'll get into, Trave. And we're going to start off today with the underrated list. And, you know, this is a group of quarterbacks that we don't think are getting the love that in respect that they should get either some people just don't |
