At the start of the college football season, there were a few questions Missouri State football wanted to avoid: Who should start at quarterback? Should it be a quarterback by committee? Is JUCO transfer Peyton Huslig the man for the job or should Rice Universtiy transfer J.T. Granato get his chance?
After just five weeks, here we are, asking those very questions.
I am going to be completely honest.
Huslig, a sophomore JUCO transfer from Garden City Community College, has done enough to keep the backup quarterbacks at bay, passing my eye test. In just five games, Huslig has rushed for 220 yards, averaging 21 yards per game.
