This visualization plots the top 5 quarterbacks by passing touchdowns against rushing touchdowns, with each point colored by conference. The scatterplot uses a multi-hue sequential colormap ranging from light blue (#edf8fb) for Pac-12 to deep purple (#810f7c) for Big 12, so that lower-ranked conferences appear lighter and higher-ranked conferences appear darker. Each circle is positioned by passing and rushing touchdowns, and hovering reveals a tooltip with the player's name, school, and conference. A legend identifies the color-to-conference mapping, while the axes are labeled PassingTD and RushingTD. The plot is rendered in SVG with D3 v3, and the marks are animated on mouseover.
