Carnell’s thread got me thinking. How do you rank Mizzou’s quarterbacks going back to Brad Smith? And what do you think Brady’s ceiling is on the list for this next year coming up. Here’s their best individual season they played statistically.
Brad Smith
2005 7-5 Independence Bowl Champs
59.4% 2,304 yds 13 TD 9 INT 114.1 rating
1,301 rush yds 5.7 ypc 16 TD
Chase Daniel 2008
10-4 Alamo Bowl Champs #19 AP
72.9% 4,335 yds 39 TD 18 INT 159.4 rating
281 rush yds 4.1 ypc 1 TD
Blaine Gabbert 2009
8-5 lost Texas Bowl to Navy
58.9% 3,593 yds 24 TD 9 INT 140.5 rating
204 rush yds 2.0 ypc 3 TD
James Franklin 2013
12-2 Cotton Bowl Champs #5 AP
62.1% 2,429 yds 19 TD 6 INT 141.9 rating
510 rush yds 4.2 ypc 4 TD
Drew Lock 2017
7-6 lost Texas Bowl to Texas
57.8% 3,964 yds 44 TD 13 INT 165.7 rating
111 rush yds 2.6 ypc 1 TD
Brady Cook 2023
11-2 Cotton Bowl Champs #8 AP
66.1% 3.317 yds 21 TD 6 INT 157.2 rating
319 rush yds 2.8 ypc 8 TD
I think Chase is clearly #1 but after that it’s tough to pick.
