In this modern era of college football, the ball is slung around the yard more than ever before. 

Most quarterbacks at the college level are making throws that weren't even fathomable a decade ago, and when you look around the landscape of the country the Pac-12 might have some of the best pure arm talent out there.

There are plenty of new faces at the quarterback position in the Pac-12, and On3 is confident that the conference will see multiple players throw for 3,000 yards in 2022. They broke down the quarterbacks from each conference that they believe will toss for 3,000 yards and four Pac-12 players were featured, including Stanford's Tanner McKee. 

Each one of these four quarterbacks will all likely be the catalyst for the teams, and if they have good seasons their teams will find imminent success. Let's take a look at the four quarterbacks in the conference they think will surpass the impressive watermark.
