    Never thought I'd be saying this......but after watching that last scoring drive today.....I would take Mertz over ANY other QB in college football right now!

    Mertz seems fine throwing downfield if he rolls out right. In the pocket though he has been suspect.

    Mertz is a gutsy qb. A great win for him and the team!

    423 yards and 3 TDs......plus how many 4th down conversions....3? And the game winning drive?

    I'll take that any day, brother!

    He is a tough SOB. Installing the ice bath in his apt was a sound move

    He’s got some weaknesses but he’s better than expected. Tough kid, glad he’s a Gator.

    He deserves much praise and he deserves better protection.

    Graham Mertz put this young team on his shoulders today and pushed us home. We made some mistakes to be sure but we grew today. Great win on the road. Go Gators!!!

    He’s becoming an alltime favorite. He’s not a superstar but the kid has heart.

    Deserves a lot of cred, playing much better than the experts predicted. Wonder how Wisconsin fans feel hearing his stats.
