The Big 12 is a conference of quarterbacks and going into Saturday’s matchup between Baylor and Iowa State, all eyes were on the Bears’ Charlie Brewer and the Cyclones’ Brock Purdy.
Ranked fifth and sixth respectively in conference passing efficiency, it could be said that both signal callers played in similar ways. But Brewer and Purdy had two completely different games in their Big 12 opener.
Purdy’s numbers looked formidable coming into the game, averaging 362 yards of total offense per game and breaking an Iowa State school record against Louisiana-Monroe last weekend with 510 yards of total offense (435 passing).
