In 2023, the Southeastern Conference will take a fresh look at the quarterback position.
Former Heisman Trophy winner Bryce Young has left Alabama, as has Georgia’s two-time national champion Stetson Bennett. Hendon Hooker is leaving Tennessee after a successful season.
Despite mediocre NCAA careers, Kentucky’s Will Levis and Florida’s Anthony Richardson are top-five draft picks.
With that in mind, let’s look at the top SEC quarterbacks and rate them based on their potential for the next season.
These rankings are determined by considerations such as previous performance, the potential for growth, supporting cast, and overall impact on the success of their squad.
