8. Jalen Milroe (Alabama)

Previous Ranking: 9

Milroe continued his strong run of play in Alabama’s 49-21 thumping of Kentucky on Saturday. Milroe was 15/22 for 234 passing yards, 36 rushing yards, 6 total TD’s (3 passing, 3 rushing), and 1 INT. In fact, he became the first ever Alabama QB to throw and rush for at least 3 TD’s in a game. For the season, Milroe now has a 65.2% completion percentage (129/198 passing), 2,070 passing yards, 333 rushing yards, 28 total TD’s (16 passing, 12 rushing), and 6 INT’s.

Milroe and the Tide will dip down to the FCS level to take on Chattanooga at Noon Eastern on Saturday.

7. Graham Mertz (Florida)

Previous Ranking: 7

Florida’s 52-35 loss to LSU on Saturday was far from Graham Mertz’s fault. He ended up going 26/38 for 311 passing yards, 2 total TD’s (1 passing, 1 rushing), and 0 INT’s. On the year, Mertz now has a 73.3% completion percentage (247/337 passing), 2,720 passing yards, 22 total TD’s (18 passing, 4 rushing), and 2 INT’s.

Florida is one win away from bowl-eligibility and can get there this week as they take on Brady Cook and Missouri at 7:30 pm Eastern on Saturday.
