Luck's passing efficiency is well above average for Stanford

Nice article, except for one thing. The article is about Andrew Luck, quarterback ratings, and how he leads the Pac-10 in QB ratings. It mentions a couple of other player's ratings, but never mentions what Andrew's rating is. What's up with that?

I think that Luck's high efficiency rating (whatever it is)will have to come into play even more as the Cardinal faces its toughest competition yet. I wouldn't be that surprised if Luck's rating went way down, but he'll need all the skill he can get, as well as help from his teammates in the coming weeks
