9. Trevor Lawrence

How incredible was it watching the glorified freshman prospect get thrown into the biggest stage in collegiate sports and dominate one of the best defenses in the country? That quarterback not only deserves to be on the cover, but he deserves an extremely high rating.

After one of the most amazing championship performances you will see, Trevor Lawrence proved to be the real deal bringing a National Championship back to South Carolina.

Quarterback guru Dabo Swinney’s next quarterback prospect took over midseason for Kelly Bryant and did not look back. Lawrence displayed pinpoint accuracy throwing 30 touchdowns and four interceptions through his true freshman campaign.

Regarded as one of the biggest quarterback prospects college football has seen since Andrew Luck, Lawrence showcased his unbelievable footwork and throw power to the entire nation in just one short season.

How does this translate to the video game? Well, Lawrence’s incredible arm strength allows deep passes to be completed with ease. Players who enjoyed throwing the ball 30 times a game would love to have a quarterback like Lawrence on their roster.

Lawrence’s fun personality and incredible quarterback attributes would have been the perfect fit for the video game’s cover.
