20. Taylor Lamb, Appalachian StateDespite throwing for 2,387 yards and 31 touchdowns and adding 436 yards and six scores on the ground, Lamb flew under the national radar last season. Expect that to change in 2016 as he’s the best quarterback returning in the Sun Belt.
That's right...THE BEST QB IN THE SUN BELT...

Re: Recent Mentions
According to this list, he's also the best QB in the state. Not bad beating out 3 4 ACC teams, even if one of them is Wake and another cheats.

Re: Recent Mentions
I would really like to win the Sun Belt next year, not so much because it would get us all that much respect nationally (it won't) but because that's the last thing Southern can say they have over us and I'm tired of hearing about it.

Re: Recent Mentions
Make that 4 ACC teams if you count Duke and/or State. It's completely understandable that you left them out though considering that it's ACC football.MtnDevil95 wrote:According to this list, he's also the best QB in the state.

Re: Recent Mentions
This is the second/third P5 opponent in a row that is suddenly much better the moment we play them. Clemson, Tennessee, and Miami all with their best squads in a decade just in the nick of time for our match up.HBTApps wrote:I also noticed Tennessee and Miami were both on the top teams on the rise.

Seems like bad luck to me.
