College football has always been predicated around the quarterback position. This is rightfully so because every team wants a quarterback that is going to be tough, possess the skills/ intangibles, make the right decisions and be accurate with his arm.
For Southeastern Conference fans, they recognize outside of Tim Tebow, Cameron āCamā Newton and Johnny Manziel that most of the QBās who won the Heisman Trophy came from the Big 12. In my opinion, it would feel like beating a horse to death if one were to constantly talk about how important the quarterback is because you donāt have to be āfootball knowledgeableā to understand that the field general is highly importantly to the success of a team. Donāt get me wrong, you need to recognize the quarterback because without him who is going to pass the football, but every once in a while it is great to also recognize the running backs and receivers.
The difference between the Big 12 and the SEC is simple. It is high-octane (spread) offense versus aggressive defense. It is very little running the football versus a heavy dose of ground and pound. It is pass first offense versus using the run to help set up the play action vertical passing attack, to make a long story short you donāt need a five-star QB to be successful in the SEC.
