Colin Cowherd Reveals His Surprising Pick for College Football's Top QB
Colin Cowherd named his top college football quarterback without hesitation, after an impressive season-opening debut.
In the first weeks of the college football season, several top quarterbacks have shown promise, with Arch Manning from Texas, Dante Moore from Oregon, and CJ Carr from Notre Dame all on high NFL pick lists. However, Colin Cowherd's weekly podcast revealed that he believes a different quarterback, Darian Mensah from Miami, is the best college football quarterback currently.
Mensah's performance on his debut against Stanford was nothing short of impressive, completing 27 of 30 passes for 401 yards and five touchdowns, with zero interceptions. Cowherd praised Mensah's story, noting that he played football for schools that typically get less attention, and highlighted his ability to perform under pressure.
Despite some suggesting that Mensah's season opener against Stanford wasn't particularly tough, he remains a leading candidate for the Heisman Trophy, with several other quarterbacks facing more challenging schedules ahead.
