Morelli vs. Henne

Just finished reading a Pittsburgh Tribune-Review article that talked about the history between Penn State QB Anthony Morelli and Michigan QB Chad Henne.

According to the article, "They both played for Pennsylvania vs. Ohio in the 2004 Big 33 game, with Henne starting. Morelli inherited a 14-3 deficit in the second quarter, but rallied his team to a 17-14 lead, throwing for 150 yards in the quarter... At the time, it rankled Morelli that twice -- at the end of the first half and late in the fourth quarter -- Henne was inserted for pivotal scoring opportunities and twice failed to deliver... 'I was real frustrated,' Morelli said at the time... That Big 33 game was recalled last year, when Henne and Morelli faced each other for the first time as starting college quarterbacks. Henne's Michigan team won, 17-10. Morelli was knocked from the game with a concussion early in the third quarter."

Statistically, the two are close in every category except TD passes, where Henne's 22 career scoring tosses are double Morelli's numbers. Which of these two quarterbacks do you think will have the better 2007 campaign?

Re: Morelli vs. Henne

I am a PSU fan but honestly there is no debate, Henne is the better college QB. That being said I think neither of them will be anything in the pros.
