2014 College Total Passing EPA Leaders

College play-by-play before 2025 does not record where passes went, so depth, direction, ACE and throw maps start in 2025. Counting stats are the official NCAA season lines.

Expected points added on all dropbacks, added up over the season. It rewards both quality and volume.

The 2014 leaders: Brandon Doughty (+232.2), Garrett Grayson (+194.8), Shane Carden (+188.9).
