Biggest unanswered question

Who takes over now? With Nic Shimonek no longer under center, the Red Raiders will have to rely on players with not much experience. It will not be easy to replace Shimonek's 3068 yards with 26 touchdowns and only 7 interceptions. But if there is one thing we learned from his past season, it is that Kliff Kingsbury's pass-heavy offense can fit almost any quarterback.
