It's good to hear about Luck's backups. For us to maintain a competitive, high quality program we have to continue developing top caliber QBs. It's amazing but that position does make a brobdingnagian difference.
I hope we get good separation in several of our games so our backup(s) get some game time reps.

Here's a good article from Corvallis: (Pac-12 is loaded with quarterbacks) talking about the quality of the Pac-12 quarterbacks and the challenge they present week after week to defensive coordinators. And it points out the importance of the quarterback in this league:
Quote:"College football is a quarterback-driven game,' Chip Kelly said. "This league is a quarterback-driven league, and we're going to go as far as Darron can play."Underscoring the need for Stanford to continue developing our QB corps.
As Kelly said, quarterback play is a key - no matter what level. But it seems in the Pac-12, it is what can make or break you in a season.
"That position, as we all know, you can have talent, you can do a lot of things, but the intangibles as far as leadership is the key to that position," Arizona State coach Dennis Erickson said.
"The best ones I've had in my coaching career have not always been the most physically gifted, but they've been the best leaders, and that's what we have with Brock (Osweiller)."
If you don't have an experienced QB, it casts a shadow of concern over an entire season. That is the case at ASU, UC East Bay, Washington.
