No upsets, no road wins and a parade of blowouts suggest the sport’s new postseason format is in need of a rethink.
Ever since college football introduced a four-team playoff a decade ago, analysts and armchair quarterbacks had salivated over the prospect of adding more teams to the mix.

Similarities
Very similar:
Products of winning programs. DeSoto should have won at least one State Championship under White and Jimerson did.
Both are/were pass first quarterbacks though dual threats to take it to the house from the pocket or roll outs.
Both are/were high IQ quarterbacks that rarely make mistakes.
Huge passing/rushing yardage throughout their career.
Both are/were undersized by P4 standards
Both were surrounded by exceptional P4 talent with explosive offenses
Both ran/run 4.4 40's.
Neither received serious offers to play QB
Differences
Jimerson is about 5-11, 165 to White's 5-7, 155.
White was the starter for 2 years and Jimerson since his freshman year.
Jimerson may be better passing out of the pocket.
Both are/were equally accurate passers, White may have been a tad better.
White committed to UNT as his lone offer before committing to TCU. Jimerson committed to TCU first before signing with UNT.
Though White decommitted from UNT, I still feel he was the better overall HS quarterback; with less weapons. RB Dontre Wilson was a national recruit that committed to Oregon but signed with Ohio St.
