:P Somebody's been drinking. No way Robinson is the better quarterback. That will be clear when the 2008-2009 season is over!!! Sam is the man!!!

Nice to see Zac getting some national love, especially at the expense of Bradford

From Pro Draft Guide
In the Sooner State, Oklahomans love their football. From Friday nights under the lights to Saturday morning tailgating, fans across Oklahoma prepare to relish in the glory that the Oklahoma Sooners may bring them. In Oklahoma though, there is another school that has plenty to brag about themselves—the Oklahoma State Cowboys.
Fans of these two rivals have been in heated debate since the "I'm a man!" debacle, where Zac Robinson surfaced as the starting QB for the Cowboys. Which school has the better passer? Is it Oklahoma and sophomore Sam Bradford, or is it the State University's own Zac Robinson? At this point, any third person perspective will say that Sam Bradford is based solely on what they saw last season but he was in the limelight while Zac Robinson rose from obscurity in the depths of Bradford's shadow.
Cowboy Up
At 6'3", 210 lbs., Oklahoma State signal caller Zac Robinson is the ultimate weapon for a Cowboys offense full of explosiveness. He has seen time at wide receiver, plus he is an excellent runner. Does he have great vision? Yes. Can he remain in the pocket, while it is collapsing, and make the 'right' throw? Yes.
Zac Robinson didn't start the season as the number one passer on the Cowboys depth chart. After an injury to then incumbent Bobby Reid in the opener versus Georgia, Robinson stepped in and completed just one meaningless pass. From that point on though, Robinson would go on to compile 2,819 yards, 23 touchdowns, and just nine interceptions. We can go ahead and throw in his 847 rushing yards and nine rushing touchdowns, and we have an immaculate quarterback among us. We must note that in three ball games, he rushed for 100+ yards.
Simply put, Zac Robinson may be the best quarterback you never heard of. We should consider him to be one of the top junior prospects in the country, along with Georgia QB Matt Stafford and Florida QB Tim Tebow.
Sooner Motivation
Motivated to prove that he will not be another Jason White, Oklahoma's sophomore gunslinger Sam Bradford will look to prove that he is the prototypical professional prospect that is worthy of Heisman consideration. He has ideal size (6'4", 220 lbs.) plus his arm strength is more than adequate. While he did miss some time due to injuries, he burst onto the scene when he completed 76% of his passes for 205 yards and five scores against the mighty Miami Hurricanes defense.
In hindsight, Sam Bradford did not get enough Heisman consideration. He should have made the trip to New York City for the presentation like former Sooner running back Adrian Peterson did when he was a freshman. Bradford has just seven rushing yards on his resume but he did complete 69.5% of his passes for 3,121 yards, 36 touchdowns, and eight interceptions... all as a freshman!
As if that wasn't enough, he did it against top-flight talent, too. We already mentioned his numbers versus the Hurricanes, but he also had great numbers at Texas, versus Missouri, and versus Texas A&M.
How can Sam Bradford not be an early favorite to win the Heisman Trophy in 2008? As a redshirt sophomore, he will be eligible for the 2009 NFL Draft if he declares by January 15th, 2009. Will he? We are not sure, but think he will declare if he can get the Sooners over their recent BCS victory drought and land them a national championship.
Supreme Beings
These guys dominate the Sooner State like the Americans dominated during Operation Rolling Thunder in Vietnam. While both quarterbacks qualify as supreme signal callers in college, which one is the better pro prospect? Don't gasp for air, but we think Oklahoma State's Zac Robinson is the better prospect.
Sam Bradford plays in a system where he can dominate, not to mention he has one of the best offensive lines in the nation, led by senior OG Duke Robinson & senior OT Phil Loadholt. We can't knock him for that because Oklahoma State has a set of great weapons for Zac Robinson to utilize, including WR Dez Bryant, TE Brandon Pettigrew, and RB Kendall Hunter.
We know you are amazed at the thought that Sam Bradford may not be the best passer in Oklahoma, but Zac Robinson has fewer flaws, especially with his accuracy, poise, and how quickly he gets rid of the football. While Sam Bradford has plenty of room to grow, as he has just played one collegiate football season, Robinson himself has plenty of room to improve as well, and we think that the learning curve on the next level may be simpler for Robinson than for Bradford.
