College Football News.com put out its list of the best college quarterback factories.  The rankings only span the last 40 years (from 1970-present), so for example, TCU's dynamic duo of Sammy Baugh and Davey O'Brien in the 1930's is no good here.

Also, the list is based ONLY on college production and does not take into account anything that happened (or didn't happen) in the NFL.

Here's the Top 20:

1) Oklahoma
2) Miami
3) USC
4) Florida
5) BYU
6) Nebraska
7) Texas
8) Florida State
9) Purdue
10) Michigan
11) Tennessee
12) Boston College
13) Penn State
14) Notre Dame
15) Washington
16) Stanford
17) Fresno State
18) Houston
19) Syracuse
20) Washington State
 
Fresno State?  Really?  I guess David Carr was the top pick in the 2002 Draft.  But quick...in ten seconds, can you name another Fresno State QB besides Carr and Trent Dilfer?
 
What about Georgia?  Eric Zeier, Quincy Carter, David Greene, DJ Shockley and Matt Stafford were all very solid, if not above average, college QB's.
 
And how do you think Mike Leach feels about Tech being left off this list?  Especially since BYU and U of H, two other "systems" made the cut.
