Michigan vs OSU: QBs since 2001
At some point this has to even out, no?
Navarre (01-03) and Henne (04-06) were the last real stability Michigan's enjoyed. Since 2007, Michigan has been forced to play 7 (8?) quarterbacks vs OSU:
2007 - Ryan Mallet (Henne hurt/ineffective)
2008 - Nick Sheridan
2009 - Tate Forcier
2010 - Tate Forcier (Denard hurt)
2011 - Denard Robinson
2012 - Devin Gardner (was a WR all season, Denard hurt)
2013 - Devin Gardner (broke foot in game)
2014 - Devin Gardner
2015 - Jake Rudock (knocked out w/shoulder injury)
2016 - Wilton Speight (injured shoulder)
2017 - John O'Korn (?) (Speight/Brandon Peters injured)
-----------------------
Since 2001, OSU has used 6 quarterbacks TOTAL:
Craig Krenzel, Troy Smith, Braxton Miller, Terelle Pryor, JT Barrett (3 starts each), and Todd Boeckman (ha-ha).

Ohio.

LOL! good one!

Now I know what it's like to be an Oklahoma St fan against Oklahoma.
No matter how good your team is, something will inevitably make you lose to your arch rival.
At least Michigan still leads the overall rivalry.
Hangs hat, sighs, drinks another beer.

What if I told you Cardale Jones only threw 3 passes vs Michigan in his career?
<mind blown>
November 18th, 2017 at 6:01 PM ^
He never started against us. He came in late in the '14 game after Barrett broke his leg.

Wtf now Caff is the savior?
We barely even began Peters' tenure and he's backup status?
How about we fix the fucking OFFENSIVE LINE, so we don't have to go through a QB carousel every damn year?

or the dude to-be-named-later that we're getting in 2019...
November 18th, 2017 at 6:19 PM ^
You're writing off Peters now?
November 18th, 2017 at 6:44 PM ^
November 18th, 2017 at 9:43 PM ^
He has the inside track to be the starting QB next season. He beat out O'Korn and Peters by a mile this season. He led them to the NY6 bowl game.
As of now, heading to the 2018 season, it's Speight at #1, Peters/McCaffery at #2. Peters have an inside edge due to PT experience this season but can't deny that if it weren't for the redshirt, McCaffery would've been playing right now.

Play Towson, or Mercer, or Chattenuga Southern, or The Citadel, or another Southern Conference team. We can pay the same as the SEC. They apparently don't have conference games scheduled specifically so the can play a money game.

And he walked off the field with the lead in the shoe last year so the prospects for next week would be looking good.
November 18th, 2017 at 7:52 PM ^
The reason all our QBs are getting hurt is our o-line can't pass protect. This is not going to get any better against OSU's front 7. It will get worse. I think JOK takes one for the team and we try to get ready for the bowl and next year. No one will admit that and we'll try to win with JOK, but I don't see Speight or Peters in there unless neccessity.
November 18th, 2017 at 10:15 PM ^
agree
November 19th, 2017 at 9:21 AM ^
November 18th, 2017 at 7:03 PM ^
I don't think he ever recovered mentally from that, and the state of pass protection did not help him any. It's the only explanation I have for his regression this year.

He's already redshirted (2014). If that one was due to injury, then he could get a 6th year of eligibility for 2019, but I'm assuming it was not.
November 18th, 2017 at 7:49 PM ^
Do you really want 2 more years of Speight? He still has another year of eligibility if Harbaugh wants him. But, I'm personally ready for Peters to be our guy with an offseason to prepare. McCaffrey can be the backup. The bigger issue IMO is the LT.
November 19th, 2017 at 12:18 AM ^
Why would you not want an experienced QB on your roster? You don't have to start him but it's nice to have him available.
November 19th, 2017 at 6:09 PM ^
Because an experience starter is not likely to be happy about being a backup and that might be a problem on a team.
November 18th, 2017 at 11:52 PM ^
"So, you're saying there's a chance" JOK won't have to start? Not that there's anything wrong with that if you are a fan of the Monty Python Holy Grail gameplan, "Run away, run away, I'm not dead yet."
Very gratuitously negative. Sorry.
