Today I am going to give you my five favorite quarterbacks that currently play in the Big 12 today. This is just my opinion on who I like out of the Big 12. These are the players that have the style I love watching on saturdays. The players that I like to watch play, though I hate some of their teams. I will rank them from five to one....

No. 5 Colt McCoy

AUSTIN, TX - NOVEMBER 27:  Quarterback Colt McCoy #12 of the Texas Longhorns throws a touchdown to teammate wide receiver Quan Cosby #6 against the Texas A&M Aggies in the final minute of the second quarter at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium Novemb

Colt McCoy is the quarterback for the Texas Longhorns, the team I love to hate. I don't think you could come up with a better name for a Texas quarterback, Colt McCoy. Though I hate his team with a passion beyond belief, I have much respect for their quarterback. I like his style of play and the way he progressed from being a scrawny freshman into the leader of this team, leading them to a Fiesta Bowl win.

No. 4 Todd Reesing

Todd Reesing, quarterback for the Kansas Jayhawks. I really like this kid. Mostly because he is one of the smallest, but he isn't afraid to run and take a hit. This guy is a great quarterback and I wouldn't be suprised to see him holding the Heisman this year. He leads a team that isn't too bad and could possibly see a BCS appearence for the Jayhawks.

No. 3 Robert Griffin

WACO, TX - OCTOBER 04:  Quarterback Robert Griffin #10 of the Baylor Bears drops back to pass against the Oklahoma Sooners at Floyd Casey Stadium on October 4, 2008 in Waco, Texas.  (Photo by Ronald Martinez/Getty Images)

Robert Griffin, where did this kid come from? It's not every day you see someone this talented in a Baylor uniform. He is the type of Quarterback I like to watch. I don't like the quarterbacks that sit in the pocket all the time, I like the ones who aren't afraid to run. The ones like Robert Griffin. He leads this team and is the reason why I am not putting a for sure W where it says Baylor. Only a Sophomore, this guy will be great for the next few years, that is if he stays in college.

No. 2 Sam Bradford

MIAMI - JANUARY 08:  Sam Bradford #14 of the Oklahoma Sooners look to pass against the Florida Gators during the FedEx BCS National Championship game at Dolphin Stadium on January 8, 2009 in Miami, Florida.  (Photo by Marc Serota/Getty Images)

Sam Bradford, the Heisman winner and Quarterback for my Oklahoma Sooners. I'm pretty much just being a homer with this one but I do like his agressive play style and the way he leads OU to victories, and does them breaking records. I hope he stays for his senior year at OU, but I doubt he will.

No. 1 Zac Robinson

STILLWATER, OK - NOVEMBER 29:  Quarterback Zac Robinson #11 of the Oklahoma State Cowboys drops back to pass against the Oklahoma Sooners at Boone Pickens Stadium on November 29, 2008 in Stillwater, Oklahoma.  (Photo by Ronald Martinez/Getty Images)

Zac Robinson, the starting QB for Oklahoma State Cowboys is definately number one on this list. I have no doubt in my mind that this guy is my favorite quarterback in the NCAA today. Everything about him sets him apart from the others. I like how he is a dual threat Quarterback. He played wide receiver for Littleton, Colorado and I remember watching him. I could also see him holding the Heisman this year, and maybe the Big 12 championship.
