As usual, the quarterback position was in the spotlight during the Orange and Blue Game on Thursday night.

Anthony Richardson showed some major promise as a redshirt freshman last year, and the estimated crowd of 45,000 wanted to see him show signs of progress as a passer.

Richardson didn’t disappoint. He executed what was likely a watered-down version of the offense to near perfection, as he took care of the ball and delivered accurate throws to his receivers.

He completed 18 of 24 passes for 207 yards and two touchdowns, and he also scored via a 12-yard rushing touchdown.
