Jayden Daniels QB vs. Brady Cook QB
Jayden Daniels of LSU has quickly made himself one of college football’s premier quarterbacks this season, amassing 1,710 passing yards while also boasting an outstanding 73.1% completion rate. But beyond these stats lies Daniels’ intangible qualities that stand out: composure under pressure and reading defensive schemes accurately; his knack for deep throws (longest pass is 75 yards); yet, being sacked 12 times might pose some concerns for Missouri’s defense.
On the Missouri side, Brady Cook has been nothing short of spectacular. Accumulating 1,468 passing yards and posting a completion rate that edges Daniels out (74.5% versus 72%). But what stands out is Cook’s superb decision-making skills — evidenced by not throwing one interception this season! His astute pocket presence and ability to distribute the ball effectively has become key components in Missouri’s offensive success while his quick scanning may present significant challenges to LSU defensive plans.
