7. Oregon

Marcus Mariota put up amazing numbers as a Duck. Almost 11,000 passing yards with 105 touchdowns. Mariotta led the Pac-12 three times in passing efficiency, leading the NCAA once. He also led the Pac-12 once each in passing touchdowns and completion percentage. He had quite an awards haul in 2014 as an All-American while winning the Heisman, Walter Camp, Davey O’Brien, Maxwell and Johnny Unitas Awards.

Joey Harrington might not have fared very well as a Detroit Lion, but he did as an Oregon Duck. Harrington threw for almost 7,000 yards with 59 touchdowns. He twice led the Pac-12 in passing touchdowns and once in passing yards and completion percentage.

Justin Herbert seems on his way to replicating his success as a Duck with the Chargers. Herbert threw for over 10,000 yards with 95 touchdowns at Oregon.

The Oregon trio threw for over 28,000 yards with 259 touchdowns and one Heisman Trophy.

Oregon makes this list without Pro Football Hall of Famer Dan Fouts.
