At the beginning of the college football season, many news outlets projected Carson Beck as the top quarterback in college football. However, his season has been a letdown, and SEC college football analyst Paul Finebaum agrees.
On “The Paul Finebaum Show,” Finebaum mentioned he no longer believes Carson Beck is the top quarterback in college football, according to Athlon Sports.
“It’s definitely a bizarre year for him,” Finebaum said. “He started, as everyone knows, as the No. 1 quarterback in college football. He’s not that anymore.”
So far, Beck has had a completion percentage of 66%, with 1,993 yards, 15 touchdowns and eight interceptions. He ranks sixth on the Heisman betting odds, courtesy of BetMGM, which is far from the lofty preseason expectations he had.
His passer rating of 146.4 is about 21 points lower than his passer rating last year. Still, he’s on the No. 2 team in the nation, and, despite some shaky performances, the Bulldogs are the top ranked team in the SEC.
