Unveiled: The Game-Changing Stars Lighting Up the 2025 College Football Season You Can’t Afford to Miss
Indiana’s dominance started on the line of scrimmage and spread outward, but the quarterback should get his flowers, too.
Here’s a thought: Is Mendoza the best QB in college football right now? The Cal transfer is rarely talked about in that light, but look at what he’s put on the field through four weeks:
- He’s second nationally in well-thrown rate at 90.6%.
- He’s the only QB in the top five in well-thrown rate who’s also averaged more air yards per attempt (9.3) than the national average.
- He’s been great at avoiding interceptions and taking sacks. His 2.1% pickable pass rate and 2.9% sack rate are both much better than average, as is his 13.6% sack per pressure rate.

Mendoza is a non-factor in the run game, and that might hurt his case as the best in the sport. But who would you really take over him right now?
