Ranking every quarterback in the College Football Playoff

On Tuesday, College Football Report ranked its top-12 quarterbacks of the College Football Playoff, with Notre Dame’s Riley Leonard landing as its No. 9 signal caller.

I have plenty of issues with this list, so I decided that it makes the most sense to rework it, as some of their picks were a bit off.

There are multiple factors that I will account for, such as experience in both playing the position and big games, statistics and intangibles.

Find out below my list of the best quarterbacks in the College Football Playoff. 12 Georgia’s Gunner Stockton 11 Quarterback Maddux Madsen
