Prior to that gift, Gabbert was 27-50 with no TDs and 2 INTs.

Here is Gabbert's 4th quarter (20-14 Mizzou...Mizzou ball 3rd and 11 from our own 30)

Incomplete pass (0-1)...Mizzou punts

Drive 2...one play (RB fumble...not Blaine's fault)

Drive 3...Blaine gets sacked on first down
Incomplete pass on 3rd down (0-2)

TD makes it 21-20 SDSU

Drive 4...Blaine throws the ball 3 times. No completions.

Drive 5...Blaine throws seven passes completing 4 of them for 28 yards before throwing an INT.

SDSU FG makes it 24-20 SDSU

Drive 6...Gabbert throws 2 passes. One incomplete...one intercepted

Drive 7...Miracle to Moe



This is who Blaine Gabbert was. He made great plays, and he made disastrous plays. He was the antithesis of a game manager, and there is no way a guy like that guides us to an undefeated season in the SEC. For every game we won because of him, we lost one because of him.

He was a good QB...but he's easily below Smith, Daniel, Franklin, and Mauk.

And the 300 some odd yards before that and the two 90 yard TDs given up to Ronnie Hillman don't factor in to that equation?

He's always been held up to a ridiculous double standard. When Chase Daniel throws an inexcusable game ending interception against Okie State no one mentions it again. When Gabbert does the same thing against Iowa it's the worst play in the history of plays.

When Daniel loses to a mediocre-at-best KU team, everyone focuses on Eberflus. When Daniel loses to a really good Nebraska team, it's because he shit his pants.

Maty Mauk completes 52% of his passes with three NFL WRs and suddenly he's a better QB than Gabbert.

It's rank bullshit.
