Week 4 SEC QB Rankings

Several teams, and quarterbacks, were off this week. However, that didn’t stop us from having some major movement in the rankings once again. Welcome to the world, Trinidad Chambliss.

Here are the post-week four rankings based solely on what we’ve seen on the field in the 2025 season.

The Sad 6

16. DJ Lagway

15. Whoever for Kentucky

14. Jackson Arnold was sacked while you read this

13. Arch Manning

12. Blake Shapen

11. LaNorris Sellers

Tier 2 QB 1s

  1. Marcel Reed, Texas A&M

Reed feels way too low, so before you Aggie fans get mad, just know that I agree with you. However, the bye week saw several players around him have big performances. Plus, he’s still ahead of Arch, so there’s that at least.

  1. Garrett Nussmeier, LSU

Finally. The Nuss Bus got rolling against Southeastern. Nussmeier completed 81 percent of his passes and accounted for four touchdowns.

  1. Ty Simpson, Alabama

Anyone who thinks Simpson is too high hasn’t watched him this season. Simpson leads the SEC in passer rating and ranks top four in yards per pass, completion percentage, and QBR. He also has ten touchdowns and no interceptions on the season.

  1. Gunner Stockton, Georgia

Stockton ranks pretty low in the SEC in passing touchdowns and passer rating. However, he’s completing over 70 percent of his passes, and we saw what he can do when Kirby Smart and Mike Bobo take the leash off of him. Pun intended.

  1. Beau Pribula, Missouri

Pribula struggled at times against South Carolina, but the Tigers also didn’t really need him to do much with how they ran the ball. Pribula still ranks second in the conference in completion percentage and has 11 touchdowns to just two interceptions.

The Top 5

  1. Trinidad Chambliss, Ole Miss

There is no quarterback controversy in Oxford guys. Chambliss is the guy. The sample size for him and Simmons is the same in 2025 – two games apiece. Chambliss’ opponents were significantly better than who Simmons faced, not to mention that he also outplayed Simmons. Chambliss has amassed 814 yards and six touchdowns.

  1. Taylen Green, Arkansas

The 2024 Taylen Green reared his ugly head this weekend: two interceptions including one in the fourth quarter in the red zone. Things like that get you beat, and up until this point Green seemed to have put that behind him. Hopefully he gets back to the week one through three version of himself with Notre Dame coming to town.

  1. Joey Aguilar, Tennessee

Welcome to the top five, Joey Aguilar. I’m admittedly probably a little delayed in putting you here despite it being more than deserved. Aguilar leads the SEC in touchdowns with 13. He’s also recorded three or more touchdowns in three of Tennessee’s four games. Aguilar makes Tennessee very dangerous, and with a manageable schedule, they are more than capable of making the College Football Playoff.

  1. Diego Pavia, Vanderbilt

Complete over 70 percent of his passes. Score two touchdowns. Win by 20+ points.

Rinse. Repeat.

Pavia leads the SEC in completion percentage at 73.9 percent and has been incredible to start the season. He’ll get another week to pad stats against Utah State, and then the fun begins.

  1. John Mateer, Oklahoma

I personally think Mateer played his most average game of the season against Auburn. He missed several open receivers, and looked off at times. That’s not a knock. That just speaks to how incredibly high this kid’s ceiling is.

Mateer ended the game with 300 yards of offense, two touchdowns, and no interceptions. He was also at his best when Oklahoma needed him most. Auburn took the lead with seven minutes left in the fourth quarter. What was Mateer’s response?

A six play 75 yard touchdown drive where he went 4-for-4 through the air, and added 13 yards on the ground including a nine yard touchdown run that capped off the drive and ultimately won the game.
