Bentley vs Huntley – Junior Year Edition

Here is Huntley’s JR year stats (pre-Ludwig):

64%, 198 yards per game, 1.3 TD’s per game, 0.7 INT’s per game, 2/1 TD/INT ratio, 60.2 QBR, 7.6 YPA

Here is Bentley’s JR year stats:

62%, 244 yards per game, 2 TD’s per game, 1 INT per game, 2/1 TD/INT ration, 72.9 QBR. 8.2 YPA

JR year, Bentley was a better QB. Double the TD’s, about the same INT’s, 50 more passing yards per game, more yards per attempt. Even the comp % was very similar. 

Here is Huntley’s jump with Ludwig:

+9.1 comp %, +23 yards per game, +0 TD’s per game, -0.4 INT per game, +20 QBR, +2.6 YPA

So, if Ludwig can do half of what he did to Huntley to Bentley, this would be Bentley’s projected stats:

67%, 255 yards per game, 2 TD’s per game, 0.5 INT per game, 4/1 TD/INT ratio, 82.9 QBR, 9.5 YPA

That 89 QBR would put Bentley as the fourth best QB in college football. Those numbers are…good. 

Like possible round one draft pick good. 

Let’s get crazy. If Ludwig impoved Bentley the same as what he did to Huntley, then this would be Bentley’s projected stat line:

71%, 267 yards per game, 4/1 TD to INT ratio, 92 QBR, 10.8 YPA. 

That’s uh…all time great type numbers at Utah.
