Tanner's QBR from his freshman year was against the following schools:

Aug 9, 2017

displacedute All-American

Nebraska (94.3)
Boise (61.6)
UCLA (43.3)
Michigan (13.5)
Connecticut (72.5)
ECU (87.8)
Cincinnati (75.0)
Wagner (99.8)
SJSU (64.3)
Missouri (51.4)
Fresno (75.5)
USU (76.6)
Utah (20.5)

So against G5 and FCS teams he averaged 68.2. Against P5 teams he averaged 44.6, and if you remove Nebraska (since he only played the last quarter) it's 32.2.

Troy, on the other hand, had the following games:

SUU (72.8)
BYU (36.4)
SJSU (44.4)
USC (86.9)
Cal (69.4)
Arizona (53.2)
OSU (12.2)
UCLA (26.1)
UW (45.9)
ASU (75.0)
Oregon (36.9)
Colorado (19.9)
Indiana (9.9)

Now those are not great numbers, but his average overall is 45.3. Against P5, however, he doesn't fall far at all, with an average of 43.5 (about the same as Tanner, and 10 higher if you throw out Nebraska's partial game).

Tanner's QBR from his freshman year was against the following schools:

displacedute

8/9/17 10:59am

Do you know what "adjusted" means?

Coop

8/9/17 11:29am

The fact remains, Tanner does great against terrible teams.

displacedute

8/9/17 11:45am

You're cherry-picking

Coop

8/9/17 11:59am

Cincy's and ECU's pass defenses were good because they faced terrible offenses

displacedute

8/9/17 12:04pm

Wrong again - that comment was based on S&P+, which, guess what, is SOS-adjusted

Coop

8/9/17 12:11pm

You're telling me ECU and Cincy are better than ASU and Arizona.

C'mon, man. The stats say it about their pass defenses. Where'd you go to school

They didn't play the same UCLA team.

how many OL did Utah have drafted last year?
