Ranking the top 10 quarterbacks in the Big 12 during the 2022 season
The Big 12 Conference has been known for its passing offenses over the better part of the last two decades.
The Texas Tech Red Raiders, Oklahoma Sooners, and Oklahoma State Cowboys have led the way with such passers as Landry Jones, Graham Harrell, and Mason Rudolph. The three are among the top four passers in the conference’s history. The Red Raiders produced three of the top 10 passers, while Oklahoma and Texas have produced two apiece.
With the 2022 college football regular season in the history books, Sooners Wire is diving into the numbers for the quarterbacks. Which passer from each Big 12 team led the way and where do they rank among their peers?
We used PFF’s passing grades to rank the signal callers, each quarterback needed at least 150 dropbacks to qualify.
