Some really cool stats from ESPN’s Big 12 blog on how and his fantastic 2008 season stack up against the best all-time seasons by Texas quarterbacks. Five games into the season, Colt’s QB rating is by far the highest and his total touchdowns are eight more than in 2005. The stats are also a reminder of just how good Major Applewhite’s 1999 season was. Check them out below:

More noise on A&M’s suspicious assist totals this season. They must be confusing basketball with hockey.
