Comments on: Checkdowns: QB Playoff Wins by College http://www.footballperspective.com/checkdowns-qb-playoff-wins-by-college/ NFL History and Stats Mon, 19 Nov 2012 18:43:26 +0000 hourly 1 https://wordpress.org/?v=6.9.4 By: Richie http://www.footballperspective.com/checkdowns-qb-playoff-wins-by-college/#comment-3808 Mon, 19 Nov 2012 18:43:26 +0000 http://www.footballperspective.com/?p=4331#comment-3808 For the most part, this list is driven by the handful of QB’s who have won a bunch of games in the playoffs. Stanford, Notre Dame and Alabama are the only schools with 2+ QB’s with 6+ playoff wins. Drop the threshhold to 5, and you can add Purdue (who had 3 QB’s with 5+ wins.) Point being, if you have one great QB come from a school, they are going to push that school way up the list.

Of course, if this Andrew Luck thing keeps up, Notre Dame is going to have a tough time keeping the #1 spot.

Delaware in the top 10. Amazing for school not known for producing NFL QB’s. NC State list of playoff winners does not include Roman Gabriel– wow, did not know he never won a playoff game with the powerful Rams teams he played with. Texas A & M (my grad school alma mater) is not on the list. (Kind of figured that). Ole Miss, my under grad alma mater is up there some, thanks to Eli. LSU on the list because of David Woodley, with no playoff wins for YA Tittle or Bert Jones, both much more heralded as QB’s.
