Mailbag: Backup QBs Thrust Into the Week 2 Spotlight, LSU's Upside and More

We made it through Week 1, even if several quarterbacks and Tennessee and Missouri’s pride didn’t…

From @Tiltingground: With backup QBs starting at schools like USC, South Carolina, Stanford, etc., who is the best backup playing in Week 2? Generally, which team has the best backup in 2019?

I’m going to preface my ramblings here by admitting that I will not actually answer the first of these two questions. None of the backups projected to start in Week 2 have any appreciable experience post-high school, so it’s impossible to say who is best—especially considering the very different offenses each will be asked to run.
