Rank the Top 5 Husker QBs since Crouch

[Dean Pope]

I totally agree you could make an argument for Ganz #1. But you absolutely cannot make an argument for Armstrong #3.

Yeah, Ganz was a stud, actually. Apparently, he holds 23 school records. Threw for 400+ and 500+ in his first two starts. He hit receivers in stride and allowed them to run after the catch. He wasn't fast but he was a good scrambler. As for Armstrong, you are right. I cannot and do not want to make an argument for him. I suppose Lord should be rated ahead of him, but I am no fan of Martinez. Horrible leader, very fast but not a tough runner. Rarely hit receivers in stride. Would occasionally hand off instead of keeping it in the option and get a teammate clobbered just because he was playing hurt and didn't want to get hit.

Hey TA has a win over an SEC team in beating Georgia...cut him some slack.....

TA's been hot and cold. But he's not done yet, 90% of all college QBs play better as the get more experienced. Armstrong should be one of those. Martinez was not.

In fairness, TA still has the best years of his Husker career sitting right in front of him. If he puts in the work, he could surpass all of these guys.
