Since their starter was injured pre-season, I'm guessing the 4th string QB (3rd string after the starter went down) has spent at least some time running the 2s. I would agree though that he hasn't had much for meaningful reps. Blitz often...I have never been to college practiced but at the HS level the 4th string QB is not getting any reps besides just drill work. I would guess that at a D1 program, once the season has started, the 4th string QB has not taken a live snap in at least 3 weeks now.
Yeah, probably a little work. But my thinking is the last two weeks were spent with 90% of the snaps going to the freshmen that never played before.Since their starter was injured pre-season, I'm guessing the 4th string QB (3rd string after the starter went down) has spent at least some time running the 2s.

They don't have to release a depth chart. Nebraska didn't release one last week.Adding intrigue.
I guess we’ll know when we get there.
do they have to release a depth chart or is that just for the fans?
Guessing they are trying to keep us guessing but there is a lot of smoke so guessing there is fire. Regardless, we are preparing for a pro style QB. 4th string guy is 6'5" and reportedly throws good. He was a couple state championships in high school and put up some pretty solid stats.They don't have to release a depth chart. Nebraska didn't release one last week.
