30 Returning Starting Quarterbacks

Since the year 2000 there has been 11 heisman trophy winners and 10 of those winners were quarterbacks. The only non quarterback came in 2009 when Alabama's running back Mark Ingram took home the heisman. The quarterback position has always been important but now with top notch passing games and players throwing for miles of yardage and touchdowns along with the emergence of the dual threat quarterback the position has just taken over college football. Last season Baylor's quarterback Robert Griffin III took home the heisman with a amazing season as he became Baylor's first heisman winner. Now that RG3 is gone there are to the NFL here are my top 30 returning starting quarterbacks of college football along with there stats from last season.
