Freshman to start at QB for USC

[vurbano]

The kid's alright: Barkley officially USC's first freshman QB - Dr. Saturday - NCAAF - Yahoo! Sports

Good. Can't wait till September 12th!

We had a freshman play in last year's USC/OSU matchup. Now, the tables are turned!

See you at the 'Shoe, FROSH!!!!!!

I guess Mitch Mustain picked the wrong time to transfer to USC from Arkansas.

 

[DodgerKing]

I was almost 100% positive that it would be Mustain

Says he played in the Spring. I take it that he graduated early. That is big, going through a spring practice but he is yet to take a snap in college. Should be interesting. VERY FEW freshman qb's , true or redshirt come in and make an immediate impact. Trojan fans better hope the running game is really good this year!!

I was rooting for Corp myself.

Mustain has a problem in his mother. Damn glad he didn't go to ND like he wanted. Don't need whiners (yeah I know, make fun of ND)

 

[Ramy]

That's rather surprising that they are doing that, but he might be there best one.

Now if Ohio State loses to USC we'll have to use a different excuse than "Terrell Pryor is still young and learning"

Why, Pryor is still young and learning, not like he downloaded experience and the ability to throw the ball over the summer ...

USC will be fine, they have a stable of running backs to hand the ball too.
QB will not lose the game.

The L.A Coliseum will be ready for Mustain fo sho on Sept 5th..

Don't forget defense! USC lost the heart of its defense to graduation. With an inexperienced QB, a full set of raw linebackers, and some new linemen, the first few games of the season are going to be tough. I don't expect to see USC in the top five nationally this year.

You seem to be forgetting that the Buckeye's also lost a good chunk of thier Defense, LB's and Saftey's as well as CB's.

It looks like neither team will know who they are till much later in the year.

I DO expect USC to be in the top 5 when it's all said and done.

Looks like Mustain is already looking forward to the NFL, just like Cassel did behind Palmer.

This the same Mustain that has played about 5 snaps in college ?

It'll be interesting to see how the freshman QB fares.

There are two polar opposites of the freshman QB- Sam Bradford and Ron Powlus.
