Gunner was making unbelievable throws all game, idk why he’s not hyped more

Everyone is talking refs but Gunner was the difference in this game IMO.

Experience really shined through today and lack thereof for Russel in the first half.

Can’t have your QB icy against a team like Georgia and expect a win.

It really was. Keelon took too many bad sacks. UGAs OLine was also insane, felt like we never got to the backfield

Wasn't that like his 6th ever start, though?

Dude has been phenomenal, how do they not have him in the heisman race? Has to be after this week.

Too much time to talk about Arch

“Arch threw a pick that gave Oklahoma a TD and then another that led to the game-winning field goal, but this guy is a Manning!”

He looked great this game but it’s also the best I’ve ever seen him play

I’ve liked Gunner for a long time but it’s a heart attack with those tight throws either being insane or costly like that potential 2nd INT in our end zone

Well his coin flips landed on heads all game tonight

Because he is just so pure. Like genuinely the dude is liked by all his team mates is what I’ve heard and just a great guy. He isn’t flashy, but passionate. I think that down home good dude persona just absorbs the hype a little.

Georgia’s offense is much more run a ton and let Gunner make plays when needed than all the offenses with QBs throwing a ton. Stetson kinda had the same issue but the O was good enough his final year to get him a Heisman invite.

Tbf I watched him make throws last night like I’ve never seen before. I didn’t know he could do that lol.
