OT - Worst QB Performances of All-Time

Submitted by TheGhostofYost on September 19th, 2012 at 10:23 PM

Alex Zordich went 4-22 with 2 INTs tonight for Buffalo. It got me wondering, what are some of the worst college QB performances in the history of the game or that you can remember?

All the more reason Mallett should have played more. I get that Henne was a senior, his last regular season game, it's OSU, etc., etc. He clearly was in no condition to be playing.

Any game where Lovie Smith ended his press conference with "Rex is our Quarterback"

Even worse was when Lovie put in Todd Collins in the last year of his NFL career into a game vs the Giants in the second half when Cutler got hurt. 4/11 for 36 yards, 0 TD, 1 INT. Then he had to start the following week because Cutler was still out - 6/16 for 32 yards, 0 TD, 4 INT, qb rating 6.2. He was pulled after 3 quarters in that game.

I love Collins for his time at UM but in his final NFL season he sucked.

Pulled the old database up and Brian Luke from Kansas gets the worst showing at -28 in a 2005 game against Oklahoma. 11/30 86 yards, 3 INT and -40 yards rushing

Henne's 11/34 against Ohio in 2007 is Michigan's worst showing (-20), although if you adjust for defense, Nick Sheridan's 2008 against NW (-15) takes the cake.

Juice Williams narrowly edges out Henne for worst B1G game, with a -20 in 2008 against Penn St

I haven't read through other responses yet so don't know if this was mentioned. In the mid-80s when I was a student Miami (FL) came to Ann Arbor highly ranked, maybe even #1. Bernie Kosar threw six picks that day, and our beloved Wolverines won.
