West Virginia was #74, Kansas St. was the next one at 45, so while not a very good defense at all, it was clearly better than the other horrible defenses I listed. So against top 45 defense Purdy was 1-5. However you want to put it, Purdy was really good vs really bad defense, and really bad against decent/good defense.

Purdy was bad against Oklahoma, TCU, Baylor and Iowa?

Yeah, 1-3 bad. TCU was terrible, but had an ok D. Purdy just couldn't come through in the clutch against Baylor, Iowa or OU, and he had chance in each game.

Purdy had a higher QB rating in all those games than Stanley had on the season. Lol

Purdy outplayed the Heisman runner up on his own field. He was awesome vs Oklahoma
Yes, he absolutely was. The comeback he led against OU was probably his best performance this season even if the outcome wasn't a W.

So Weiskamp's worst game of the year he shot 43% from the field which is better than Bolton's season average....got it. Bolton has now surpassed Weiskamp in shot attempts for the year.

Bolton forces a lot of bad shots. If he cut that part out he would be pretty good.

Brock led his team on 3 consecutive TD drives against Baylor and took the lead, however the defense let Baylor drive down to kick the game winner. He played solid against Iowa and didn't get a chance to win the game because his special teams completely messed up. He put up 6 TD's against OU and led the team down the field and threw a TD to tie the game. Sure he didn't throw it to the right guy on the 2-pt conversion, but the ball he did throw was in Pettway's hands and there was also obvious PI on the play.

If you want to say Purdy didn't play well in the ND, K-State, or late in the OSU game that's fine.
