Chambliss wants to return to school but needs a waiver to do so.
If it’s not approved, there’s no other option than NFL. Now if the waiver is approved, then Simpson is top 3 by default given how bad the class is.
But if Chambliss builds on his UGA performance whether they beat us or lose, no one in their right mind is taking Simpson over him imo. What he did against UGA was the single best performance from a college QB this season. And like Cribby said, this guy has played much more ball than Simpson has (albeit different levels). There’s more tape + he showed he can do it against the SEC, and has improved every game this season. Simpson regressed, particularly his last 3-4 games.
With that being said, Simpson would have us right back in contention next season and then some. He’s my #1 “realistic” portal option.
