2023 Big 12 QB Rankings – News Radio KMAN – News Radio KMAN
by @TheRealMasonV
Gabriel threw for over 3,100 yards and 25 touchdowns against only six interceptions. Oklahoma found a way to lose games despite big games from Gabriel, who had a QBR over 80 in four of the six losses he played in for Oklahoma.
Gabriel is also the most proven quarterback playing in the Big 12 this upcoming season, as this will be his fifth season as the starting quarterback and he has been good in each, except for his last season at UCF where he was injured early in the season.
K-State lost Adrian Martinez early in their road trip against TCU and the reborn version of Will Howard shined before also getting injured in the game. Howard didn’t look back, he cruised to a 48-0 win over Oklahoma State and was carried off the field the following week and two weeks later came back in relief of an injured Martinez to carve up Baylor.
What Howard did better in his third season behind center for K-State was throwing the ball downfield with confidence. He threw for 15 touchdowns and only four picks, while putting up over 1,600 yards on just under 200 pass attempts. Everything that seemed to ail Howard in his first two seasons in Manhattan had seemingly gone away and he led the Wildcats to a Big 12 title. Now he is on NFL radars, just attended the Manning Passing Academy and will have to prove 2022’s resurgence wasn’t a fluke.
Daniels was forced to miss time last season though, exiting just before halftime against TCU and not returning until over a month later against Texas. Most of Daniels’ big numbers came early in the 2022 season where he carved up West Virginia, Duke, Houston and Tennessee Tech.
Daniels might have the highest ceiling of the quarterbacks in the league, but 2023 will be about proving that he can replicate his results against the top half of the Big 12. His defense and other parts of his team also need to help him out quite a bit more.
Bijan Robinson was the sole reason for Texas offensive success in 2022 and there was no better example of that than the game against K-State. Texas used Robinson to help build an early lead, but the game started to move back in K-State’s favor when Quinn Ewers became a bigger focal point in the offense.
Ewers’ talent was obvious at times, but it never felt like he was anything special. He was young though and year two brings major expectations for the Longhorns who have not won the Big 12 since 2009. He has the talent around him, now it is time for Ewers to make the leap in his third season on a college football roster.
Ewers had a QBR of 64.8 last season, which ranks 7th out of the expected starting quarterbacks in the Big 12 for 2023.
Shough transferred from Oregon ahead of the 2021 season and while he has been better than some would think, he hasn’t necessarily been great for Texas Tech. Shough is another quarterback that has plenty of experience playing in games and the Power 5 level. Expectations are high in 2023 for Texas Tech and Shough will be a major reason they either meet or fall short of those.
I expect UCF to be a top half of the Big 12 team this season and I think Plumlee will be in that same range as a quarterback. The biggest question will be seeing how he adjusts to a full season of Big 12 football where the defenses will be tougher and sometimes the expectations and needs of an offense are greater as well.
Duggan took the job and ran with it, literally, to a Heisman finalist season and a Fiesta Bowl/College Football Playoff victory. Morris had to sit back and watch and only think of what could have been. 2023 will be the chance for the former Oklahoma quarterback to live up to previous expectations. TCU will take a drop off this season based on everything they lost last season, but Morris could give the Frogs more fight than anticipated.
Metrics like QBR didn’t like what they saw from Kedon Slovis at Pitt last season, in fact, he had the worst QBR of starters in the Big 12 this upcoming season at 46.8.
Slovis transferred to Pitt from USC looking to have a breakout like Kenny Pickett, but instead put up pedestrian numbers for the Panthers. Slovis now moves on to his third school in his career (similar to another former USC turned Big 12 quarterback like JT Daniels), and is searching for a return to form like his freshman season with the Trojans where he had a 30/9 touchdown to interception ratio.
Blake Shapen had a promising appearance in the 2021 season for Baylor and his performance led many to believe he was heading toward being one of the better quarterbacks in the league and taking Baylor to the top again. While the numbers weren’t bad for Shapen, his play in 2022 left a lot to be desired.
Baylor went 6-7 last season and the only team with a winning record that they beat was Texas Tech.
Is Donovan Smith too high on this list? Probably. But I have always liked what I saw from Smith when he was on the field with some big throws and the ability to run. After seeing action as a reserve at Texas Tech the last few seasons, and playing some tight end in their bowl game, Smith has moved on to help replace Clayton Tune at Houston.
Smith is the start of a run on quarterbacks that are on their second chances and haven’t done anything worthy of praise or are too early to tell what they will be.
I really like the skillset of a supremely athletic player like Jones, but the question will come down to if he has the talent of a quarterback and if that develops under Scott Satterfield at Cincinnati.
Iowa State had an amazing defense in 2022, it just gets overshadowed by the fact the Cyclones went 4-8 and only won one Big 12 game. That is even with the Cyclones having a wide receiver in Xavier Hutchinson who got drafted. So, the blame has to fall on the quarterback.
There is no reason Dekkers should have thrown 357 passes in 2022, and that high pass attempts number led to 14 interceptions and 26 sacks. Iowa State needs to find a more balanced approach to give Dekkers any chance to move out of the cellar of Big 12 quarterbacks.
One good note from Greene last season is that in the limited playing time, his QBR would have been good for third in the Big 12 this upcoming year, only behind Jalon Daniels and Will Howard.
West Virginia has a big non-conference slate with Pitt and Penn State, so it will be sink or swim early for the Mountaineers.
If you want any evidence that Oklahoma State probably won’t be very good in 2023, Alan Bowman being their starting quarterback is it. Bowman seemed to have hype every season at Texas Tech, but wound up injured and eventually made the curious decision to transfer to Michigan where he was in a big quarterback room that never had his name come up. So after two years sitting behind Jake McCarthy and Cade McNamara, Bowman is back in the Big 12 at Oklahoma State.
Bowman hasn’t really played in over two years and transferring out of Texas Tech and not getting any mention at Michigan doesn’t say anything special should be expected of Bowman.
At least he is going to crack the code to the 3-3-5 defense though, right?
The 3-3-5 defense has given folks fits in the Big 12. This year Oklahoma State is making some big changes scheme-wise to combat that. A story with @max_olson on how the Cowboys ended up with ideal QB for it and their plan to attack that. https://t.co/iIua25snMh

Paddy Pimblett doesn’t expect to be ranked after beating Tony Ferguson at UFC 296 — so he’ll settle for Bobby… – MMA Mania

Tony Ferguson is not ranked in the Top 15 at 155 pounds.
That’s why Paddy Pimblett doesn’t expect to earn a spot on the lightweight ladder with a victory over the former interim champion when they collide at the upcoming UFC 296 pay-per-view (PPV) event, locked and loaded for Sat., Dec. 16, 2023 at T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas.

“I’ll be honest, I don’t see myself being put in the Top 15 after a win against Tony,” Pimblett told The Energized Show (transcribed by MMA News). “Bobby Green didn’t, and Bobby Green fought — beat him before I did, you know what I mean? So, I can see me fighting someone like that: Bobby Green, Grant Dawson, you know what I mean? Someone like that to get in the rankings.”
Pimblett and Green have a score to settle after this “fathead” incident at UFC San Diego.
“I mean, that’s what I can see after I beat Tony,” Pimblett continued. “Like, especially if the big fella Conor’s [McGregor] coming back in UFC 300, lad. The missus will be due a couple of weeks after that. So, it’d be nice to get another, another fight in, get another payday in before the twins are due.”

The promotion is currently working on its lineup for the blockbuster UFC 300 card in April, which may be headlined by former two-division champion Conor McGregor. Pimblett vs. Green would be a strong addition, assuming “King” prevails this weekend at UFC Austin.

In a grudge match, undefeated WBC middleweight champion Jermall Charlo (32-0, 22 KOs) scored a ten round unanimous decision over José Benavídez Jr. (28-3-1, 19 KOs) in a non-title WBC special event on Saturday night’s Benavidez-Andrade card at the Michelob ULTRA Arena at Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas. Returning after nearly 2 1/2 years, Charlo was stronger than the aggressive Benavidez and won most of the rounds. Benavidez was wobbled in the tenth. Scores were 98-92, 99-91, 100-90.
Give props. He fought well. He knows how to fight.
Charlo did a good job moving, countering, and even leading in many rounds of the fight. Yes, he did well. However, I question if he can even stop Canelo who is much stronger than Benavidez Jr. Charlo will need to beat Canelo on points should they fight. I dont see a KO for Charlo against Canelo.
lol Canelo has never been knocked down let alone knocked out. Charbum absolutely has no chance of even hurting him. Charbum will be the one getting laid out if they fight.
Please nobody wants to see Charlo vs Canelo. The only fight for Canelo is Benavidez.
Benavidez vs Bivol is what we really want to see
Charlo very dominant, Jose put a valiant effort, but lacks fundamental
He should be ashamed he could not ko Benavides
Boxing should not let this fights go on
In the weigh in looks like over weight boxer is not a problem
But this like putting one live on risk
Charlo was too strong for Benavides
Can’t say I’d be too proud beating a guy two weight classes below me. And he couldn’t stop him? The commentators kept saying solid performance by Charlo and i get it .. he was out 40 months. But still, this was a super middle weight fighting a blown up welterweight. I guess that’s what Benavidez gets for all the pre fight talk. I pick Plant and Morrell over Charlo.
Not to bad after almost three years without fighting but nowhere close to challenge any one of the big names at Super Middle. Plant, Mibilli, Morrel and Benavidez would smoke him.
This fight did not settle in my gut correctly because Charlo missed weight. Under such weight related circumstances, Benavidez hung in there with a solid chin. Charlo’s punches were creative, and his jabs were mean.
Agree E man …Charlo had some good moments….but clearly that finisher that beast we are use to seeing .,.not there… hopefully it is rust…but …Charlo struggling with something else…can clearly see it…I hope that Charlo is “ok” outside the ring…
Yep, how good would charlo have been if he had of sweated off the extra 3-4 pounds and actually made weight ? Possibly a more even playing field for the smaller Benevidez Jr……
Hopefully charlo fights plant next
Not bad for charlo.good fight to get the rust out! Benavidez was talk,talk bullishht and no pop in his punches! Great sportsmanship on charlo at the post fight interview. Bobo gettn’ KO by benavidez next fight! Its a total mismatch, bobo too weak for the hard punching destroyer in benavidez! Bobo’s promoters don’t realize the danger they put him for picking this fight. Benavidez by brutal KO of the year on the 8th or a “no-mas” call out!
Dominated a welter weight (blown up). He got rounds in and maintained composure surprisingly.
I’m at the fight and there are no ring girls! WTF!!!
Benavidez about to stop Boo-boo. One more round
Done.
It was expected! A bobo blow out! Benavidez is in onother level, and not the bums bobo is used to fight and strugled with when he was champion! The most “avoided” title just was too big for bobo!
I don’t think it was right that Charlo be allowed to come in so heavy in violation of the contractual catch weight limit of 163. He likely was close to 170 when he stepped into the ring, more than 7-8 lbs heavier than Benavidez. He enjoyed a height advantage too. Totally unfair. Credit to Jose for putting up a valiant effort. Charlo couldn’t knock him out either. I personally am not very impressed with Charlo. He wants the big money that fighting Canelo or David Benavidez would bring, but it’s obvious that he would be no match for either. His more immediate goal should be to fight Plant, so he can save face and exact revenge for Plant slapping him. This is the reason that Plant slapped him too, to force him to choose Plant as an opponent with the title on the line.
Jose Benavides was out boxed. He did show he has a decent chin. Charlo didn’t have enough punching power to stop Benavides. Charlo will not beat Alvarez.
Just wanted to note….Charlo …I am praying for you….you are a man before a fighter…In your corner in “life”….hang in there champ…
Charlo is done at top level. I think Plant beats him at 168 and benavidez would knock him out as quick as he did Andrade. If he has to fight Adames at the middleweight limit, then he loses that too.
Way to go Charlo!
ok, lets just hope that we dont now have
canelo-charlo. if so, another hard pass for me
Surprised he couldn’t KO him. Jose Jr, a career Welterweight comes in at a catch weight of 163. Meanwhile Charlo, a natural Middleweight comes in 3.4# over at 166.4. So you had an overweight out of shape Welterweight fighting a Super Middleweight.
