Sporting News played it safe with Bryce Young and C.J. Stroud in .SN ranked Young at No. 11 and Stroud at No. 18. Too safe.Young finished with 4,872 yards and 47 TDs and won the Heisman Trophy while leading Alabama to an appearance in the College Football Playoff championship game. Stroud pa sed for 4,435 yards, 44 TDs and six interceptions and capped the season with a record-setting performance Jehu Chesson Jersey in the Rose Bowl.Young and Stroud are easy choices at the top, but this year's list has a few surprises. A total of 10 quarterbacks who made last year's top 25 returned to school, and they aren't on the list this year. Seven quarterbacks are on the list again, including Oklahoma's new quarterback Dillon Gabriel and Oklahoma's old quarterback Spencer Rattler.MORE: As always, this list is subject to debate. With that in mind, Sporting News looks at the top 25 college football quarterbacks for 2022:Just mi sed: Taulia Tagovailoa, Maryland; Cade McNamara, Michigan; Casey Thompson, NebraskaMORE: 25. Stetson Bennett, Georgia2021 pa sing: 2,862 yards, 29 TDs, 7 INTsDoubt Bennett at your own peril. He's 14-3 as a starter the last two seasons, and now the starting job is his after leading the Bulldogs to a national championship in 2021. In the playoff victories against Michigan and Alabama, Bennett completed 66.1% of his pa ses and averaged 268.5 yards. He had 5 TDs and no picks in those monumental victories. The Bulldogs' offensive game plan isn't going to change much in 2022 either.24. Phil Jurkovec, Boston College2021 pa sing: 914 yards, 7 TDs, 4 INTsIt's a huge year for Jurkovec, who is projected much higher on NFL Draft boards. The 6-5, 226-pound dual-threat quarterback mi sed most of last season with a wrist injury a year after showing his potential with four 300-yard games for the Eagles. He averaged 6.4 yards per carry last season. If Jurkovec puts it all together this season, then he could be a top-10 pick in 2023. The 381-yard, five-TD performance against Georgia Tech last season was a strong reminder of that high-end potential.23. Cam Ward, Washington State2021 pa sing: 4,648 yards, 47 TDs, 10 INTsWard is arguably the most-fascinating quarterback on this list. He piled Austin Davis Jersey up 4,709 yards of offense in the FCS with Incarnate Word last season. The only FBS QB with more yards last season was Bryce Young. The 6-2, 223-pounder put on a show at the spring game Kyle Kalis Jersey with four touchdown pa ses, and that should ease the transition with new coach Jake Dickert.22. Aidan O'Connell, Purdue2021 pa sing: 3,712 yards, 28 TDs, 11 INTsO'Connell had a breakout performance in the upset against Iowa, and he emerged as one of the hottest quarterbacks in the FBS in Purdue's last five games. He averaged 432.2 pa sing yards in that stretch, and that included a pair of 500-yard games in victories against Michigan State and Tenne see. O'Connell is a high-volume pa ser, but with a 71.6% completion percentage, that makes the Boilermakers a dangerous team in 2022. 21. Quinn Ewers, Texas2021 pa sing: NoneEwers skipped his senior season of high school, and he transferred after one season at Ohio State where he did not throw a pa s. Casey Thompson transferred to Nebraska, and Ewers will battle Hudson Card for the starting job in fall camp. The 6-foot-2, 200-pound quarterback can stretch the field with his arm, and if he wins the starting job he will be in control of a 40-points-per-game offense in Austin. We like the upside.20. Will Levis, Kentucky2021 pa sing: 2,826 yards, 24 TDs, 13 INTsLevis might make headlines for eating bananas with the peels on them, but there's more substance to what he brings to the Kentucky offense. The Penn State transfer led the Wildcats to a 6-0 start before hitting a few dips on the second half of the schedule. Levis faced just three ranked teams last season, and he had four TDs and three interceptions in those games. He Eli Brooks Jersey 'll be working with new offensive coordinator Rich Scangarello in 2022.19. Clayton Tune, Houston2021 pa sing: 3,544 yards, 35 TDs, 10 INTsExpectations are high this season for the Cougars, and Tune's return for a fifth season are part of the excitement. Tune shook off a slow September and led Houston to 10 straight victories in 2021. He hit more than 70% of his pa ses in seven games last season, and he adds a dimension in the running game. The Birmingham Bowl victory against Auburn was a confidence builder, too.18. Will Rogers, Mi si sippi State2021 pa sing: 4,739 yards, 36 TDs, 9 INTsMike Leach-system quarterbacks always find a way on this list, and Rogers ranked third in the FBS with 4,739 pa sing yards last season. Rogers had more than 300 pa sing yards in 11 of 13 games, and he led the nation in completion percentage at 73.9%. The Bulldogs still lost five games, and a late-season slide in lo ses to Ole Mi s and Texas Tech was part Dymonte Thomas Jersey of the story.MORE: 17. Jaxson Dart, Ole Mi s2021 pa sing: 1,353 yards, 9 TDs, 5 INTsTrust the system that made Matt Corral a star. Dart transferred from USC, and the four-star recruit showed flashes of that talent with the Trojans in 2021. Ole Mi s has a new co-offensive coordinators in Charlie Weis Jr. and John David Baker, who was on USC's staff last season. That continuity should help in Lane Kiffin's stat-friendly offense. Dart should emerge as a breakout player in the SEC West as a result.MORE: 16. Dorian Thompson-Robinson, UCLA2021 pa sing: 2,409, 21 TDs, 6 INTsIt seems like DTR has been with the Bruins forever. He's paired with Chip Kelly for a fifth year which will be pivotal for the program. Thompson-Robinson had his most-efficient season as a pa ser last season with a career-best 8.5 yards per attempt. He also had 609 rushing yards and nine TDs. He's 3-7 against ranked teams as a starter. Will he lead UCLA Brent Hibbitts Jersey to that long-awaited breakthrough?MORE: 15. Spencer Rattler, South Carolina2021 pa sing: 1,483 yards, 11 TDs, 5 INTsRattler was No. 1 on this list in 2021. He lost the starting job at Oklahoma to Caleb Williams, but the five-star recruit who has been in the spotlight his whole career transferred to South Carolina. That fresh start for Shane Beamer for an up-and-coming program should make a difference, and Rattler does have a career completion percentage of 70.1% with 40 TDs and 12 interceptions. The SEC spotlight could push him back up draft boards, too.MORE: 14. Anthony Richardson, Florida2021 pa sing: 529 pa sing yards, 6 TDs, 5 INTsBetween Richardson's rushing and pa sing attempts, the Gators averaged 7.4 yards per play last season. The 6-4, 236-pounder is a big-time talent who has had brilliant moments, but he's also been an inconsi
