SEC Football: Quarterback a strength of the conference in 2017

SEC Football is known for being a smash mouth conference that plays great defense. But the conference is often criticized for having overrated defenses because the league is filled with below-average offenses, and more specifically quarterback-play, and that’s not necessarily false.

But that won’t be the case in 2017.

This will likely be the best SEC quarterback class since 2013, when Johnny Manziel, A.J. McCarron, Aaron Murray, and Zach Mettenburger were leading the SEC signal-callers. And there were also guys like Connor Shaw, Nick Marshall, Bo Wallace, and a guy named Dak Prescott, who turned out to be pretty good too.
