Rewind two years and a week to Ann Arbor, Michigan. In the fourth quarter and on his own four-yard line in the largest college football stadium in America, Taylor Lamb stepped onto the turf replacing then starting quarterback Kam Bryant to begin the first drive in his career against the Michigan Wolverines, the team that put App on the map nine years ago. Nineteen plays and 96 yards later, Lamb managed to put his first seven points on the board for Appalachian State.
Although the Wolverines refused to budge even the slightest bit, Lamb did manage to stake his claim to the starting QB position as a freshman.
