The regular season is over so it’s time to revisit the comparison between Jacob Eason and Matthew Stafford during their true freshmen seasons.

Dawn of the Dawg has already done two comparisons between Jacob Eason and Matthew Stafford. Going by stats, wins, accomplishments and intangibles, Eason had the edge over Stafford in September and October.

In November 2006, Georgia went 2-1. Stafford had secured the starting position as Mark Richt was looking to the future after a 6-3 start and a close loss to Florida. But he began the month with one of the ugliest quarterback performances in Georgia history. However, he ended the month by leading two upsets over two of the Bulldogs biggest rivals.

In November 2016, Georgia went 3-1. But Eason has controlled the starting position since week two of the season. Eason had an efficient November, and the month was a success until the loss to Georgia Tech.

Now we’ll break down the November’s of the both true freshmen Jacob Eason and Matthew Stafford.
