Top 25 QB rankings entering Week 11 of college football
The final three weeks of the regular season are all that is left, and the On3 Top 25 quarterbacks have been refreshed for the final stretch. It was a steady week, with the Top 10 remaining the same.
There was movement within the Top 10, but the same quarterbacks comprise the list. Only one moved in/out of the entire Top 25. The conference breakdown is as follows: Eight from the SEC, six from the Pac-12, four Big Ten, three from the ACC, two from the Big 12, one Group of 5 quarterback and Sam Hartman.
Check out the full On3 Top 25 quarterbacks heading into Week 11 below.
1. Caleb Williams, USC
Williams and USC suffered a third loss in four game over the weekend, ending any outside shot at the College Football Playoff or a Pac-12 championship. But Williams was again excellent.
Williams accounted for four total touchdowns and more than 300 yards against the Huskies. He and the Trojans will keep on playing for pride the rest of the season.
2. Michael Penix Jr., Washington
On the other side in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Penix also shined. And he led Washington to another win to stay undefeated and in the thick of the CFP race.
Penix wasn’t flawless, throwing an interception along the way. But he had three total touchdowns and threw for 256 yards as the rushing attack ran wild.
3. Drake Maye, North Carolina
Maye and North Carolina had a get-right game after back-to-back losses. And they made the most of it in a blowout win over Campbell.
Maye completed 69.6% of his passes for 244 yards. He threw for four touchdowns and no interceptions in the win.
4. Jayden Daniels, LSU
The big question for Daniels going forward is his health. The quarterback suffered a concussion in the second half against Alabama and his status for Week 11 is in flux.
Even with getting knocked out of the game, Daniels accounted for nearly 400 total yards. He had three total touchdowns and had one interception.
5. Bo Nix, Oregon
Nix and Oregon rolled to another win, looking to be one of the best teams in the Pac-12. Nix was his usual accurate, efficient self — he accounted for six total touchdowns, too.
Nix went 29-of-38 for 386 yards and four touchdowns, plus an interception. He rushed five times for only three yards, but scored two touchdowns.
6. Carson Beck, Georgia
Beck continues to shine as Georgia asks him to power the offense sans Brock Bowers. And he was sharp as usual as Georgia stayed perfect, dispatching Missouri, 30-21.
Beck went 21-of-32 for 254 yards and two touchdowns in the victory, keeping the offense on schedule and avoiding mistakes. He hasn’t thrown an interception in his last two games after throwing one in three-straight games prior.
7. J.J. McCarthy, Michigan
Michigan and McCarthy had a bit of a lull through the middle portion of the game, leading by only a few scores. And the closer-than-usual game resulted in McCarthy playing almost four quarters for the first time this season.
McCarthy was 24-of-37 for 335 yards, but didn’t account for a touchdown in a 41-13 win. It’s his first scoreless game in 2023.
8. Shedeur Sanders, Colorado
It’s been a struggle of late for Sanders and Colorado. The Buffaloes offensive line has struggled and there have been few solutions to solve that issue.
Sanders completed 24-of-39 for 245 yards and two touchdowns in a loss. The Buffaloes need to win two of the final three games to get bowl eligible, and Sanders might need to transcend a subpar line to make it happen.
9. Dillon Gabriel, Oklahoma
Gabriel and Oklahoma fell victim to the Bedlam Game, losing the last-ever Big 12 edition of the in-state rivalry. Gabriel was up-and-down on the afternoon.
Gabriel completed 26-of-37 passes for 344 yards and a touchdown, but did throw an interception. He was limited in the rushing game, going for minus-seven yards.
10. Jordan Travis, Florida State
Travis and Florida State continue to roll through the ACC to stay undefeated. That was the case over the weekend as he accounted for multiple touchdowns and more than 300 yards.
Travis went 22-of-36 passing for a touchdown and 360 yards and rushed for a touchdown. Because of sack yardage, he scored the touchdown despite rushing for minus-15 yards.
Quarterbacks No. 11 through 25
11. Jaxson Dart, Ole Miss
12. Drew Allar, Penn State
13. Spencer Rattler, South Carolina

23. Graham Mertz, Florida
24. Joe Milton, Tennessee
25. Tyler Van Dyke, Miami
Aguilar (No. 21) appears in the rankings for the first time all season. Tulane’s Michael Pratt fell back out of the Top 25 after reappearing in the ranking for a few weeks following his early-season injury.
