He was on the all-SEC freshman team in 2023 and had a good year this season.

Raiola is an interesting case study. He's not bad. But he doesn't do much that is exceptional. He has erratic tendencies. All together, he checks down more than just about any QB in the country, which is why his completion percentage is so high. Feels like that is perfect for what we have seen Oregon do at QB lately.

Everyone that has watched a bit of football can see that he plays QB thinking that he's a much better athlete and "thrower of the football" than he actually is... Talked about him in an previous thread with Gerry chiming in and saying that he constatly drops the ball below his waist before throwing and has a looooong release, all while working with the famous QB guru that trains mahomes and others (Not really a diss, he is a pretty good coach tbf) Plus, the intagibles: - Clearly copies Mahomes in everything that he does, don't know how anyone can deny that and if we see it and I'm sure the teammates see it too - 6 different teams in 7 years... good luck having a team that will have your back bro! Goosby earlier in the year said that Arch is "Someone you want to lay down life for", has anyone said that about Temu Mahomes? Loyalty and leadership are as important for a QB as any other thing. To me, he doesn't have it at all.

Not a QB expert at all but I’ve always felt slightly underwhelmed by his play, then again I don’t think he was in a good situation at Nebraska

I’ve been saying this. No matter the number, don’t expect a fair or transparent system. Ambiguity, controversy, and debate mean ratings.

Wait till raiola finds out he has to tear his ACL next to copy his idol

First team was David Bailey and Cashius Howell. I think Simmons is better than either of them, but I can at least understand it. Second team was John Henry Daley (okay, I get it…he had a ton of production this year) and Rueben Bain. Bain makes NO sense. They clearly wanted to reward his career, not his season. The dude had 4.5 sacks!!!! Great talent, but Simmons had a demonstrably better year. Third team was Caden Curry (I get it, awesome player, but they are clearly rewarding him for being a senior) and some dude from Western Michigan with 14.5 sacks (let’s see him do it against P4 competition). You can rationalize all their selections, but the reality is that it’s a joke.

Didn't have Dan Lanning striking out in the portal at QB on my bingo card lol

56 career snaps

That’s hilarious

Will Compton must be in shambles

Dylan Raiola is expected to enter the portal according to Pete Nakos. I heard Oregon a week or two as a team to watch.

Interesting the SEC first team left tackle isn't on there.

It's all about the Benjamins.

Watch for Florida to make a run at Duke QB Darian Mensah. Played for Sumrall at Tulane in 2024.

What makes the Simmons snub indefensible Is that the AP actually distinguishes between edge rushers and interior defensive linemen. I refuse to believe there are six better edge defenders in America than Colin Simmons.

Probably the top QB imo

I’ve thought the same thing for a while

There's no way a majority of these goobers actually watch football on Saturday's

No Simmons is pathetic

Anthony Hill was a second-team selection at linebacker. Taaffe was a third-team selection at safety. Colin Simmons was not named to the AP All-America team.

Short answer: when ESPN finishes counting the ad inventory. Longer answer: sooner than later. The deadline slip to January 23 tells you everything—this isn’t about competitive balance, it’s about packaging the chaos without losing a single studio show. Nobody’s walking away from the ratings sugar rush. Translation: 16 teams is inevitable. The only suspense left is whether they roll it out as a “response to feedback” or pretend it was always part of the master plan.
