CBS Sports shakes up Top 25 QB rankings after Week 6 of College Football

CBS Sports shook up its Top 25 QB rankings after Week 6 of the college football season and there’s another new No. 1 signal caller! It’s a week to week type of sport as the top 10 was almost completely changed!
Some quarterbacks stood pat in their ranking but others made huge moves up and others dropped significantly. This is the rollercoaster of rankings!
So without further ado, let’s dive into the latest CBS Sports QB rankings. We start at the top!
1. Ty Simpson, Alabama (+4)
Simpson is the new No. 1 QB per CBS Sports this week. The Alabama star is rolling right now as the Crimson Tide have ripped off four wins in a row.
He has 1,478 yards, 13 touchdowns, one interception and a 70.3% completion percentage. With another ranked game against Missouri this week, Simpson can start making Heisman arguments!
2. Julian Sayin, Ohio State (+13)

Sayin has been very efficient so far this season, but had a really good game this weekend against Minnesota. Ohio State just looks like a juggernaut again too.
Sayin vaulted up CBS’ QB list to No. 2 overall after not even being in the top 10. This year, he has 1,313 yards, 13 touchdowns, three interceptions and an insane 80.2% completion percentage.
3. Trinidad Chambliss, Ole Miss (-2)
Chambliss was actually the No. 1 QB last week but moves down this week due to the other two making big leaps. But Chambliss looks like the guy moving forward for Ole Miss.
The undefeated Rebels might end up being the best team in the SEC at this rate and Chambliss might be the key. This year, he has 1,033 yards, five touchdowns, one interception, a 64.4% completion percentage, 266 rushing yards and two rushing touchdowns.
4. Haynes King, Georgia Tech (-1)
King only dropped one spot in this week’s QB rankings from CBS. The Georgia Tech signal caller is the gas to the offense as a true dual threat.
The passing yards are a little lower than others, but he’s been a dynamic playmaker. King has 758 yards, three touchdowns, one interception, a 68.5% completion percentage, 380 rushing yards and seven rushing touchdowns.
5. Fernando Mendoza, Indiana (-1)

Mendoza has been highly impressive this season for the undefeated Hoosiers. Due to other movement and a bye week for Indiana, he moved down slightly in this QB list.
In five games this year, Mendoza has lit it up. He has 1,208 yards, 16 touchdowns, one interception and a 73% completion percentage.
6. Dante Moore, Oregon
Moore’s gotten a lot of rave reviews in recent weeks are Oregon mows down teams. This’ll be a big spot this weekend as Indiana comes to town for a top 10 showdown.
Since sitting a year behind Dillon Gabriel after leaving UCLA, Moore has skyrocketed. Moore has 1,210 yards, 14 touchdowns, one interception and a 74.6% completion percentage.

Robertson is actually the nation’s leader in passing yards and touchdowns. He has 2,058 yards, 19 touchdowns, four interceptions and a 63.7% completion percentage.
9. Luke Altmyer, Illinois (+3)
After getting beat down by Indiana a few weeks ago, Illinois has really stepped up against USC and Purdue the last two weeks. The veteran Altmyer has been solid during that stretch and he’s a top 10 QB per CBS.
This year, he has 1,573 yards, 12 touchdowns, zero interceptions and a 73.6% completion percentage. Altmyer also has two rushing touchdowns.
10. Brendan Sorsby, Cincinnati (+4)
How about Sorsby getting into the top 10 of CBS’ QB rankings? He was impressive in an upset win over Iowa State to improve the Bearcats to 4-1 on the season.
This season, Sorsby is a lot like the other quarterbacks up top, he rarely turns the ball over. He has 1,257 yards, 12 touchdowns, one interception and a 65.9% completion percentage.
