OT: Oregon names freshman Marcus Mariota the starter at QB over Bryan Bennett

Redshirt freshman quarterback Marcus Mariota will be named Oregon's starter in a surprise over third-year starter Bryan Bennett. Bennett was the primary backup to Darron Thomas, who shocked many in the program when he turned pro after his junior season, and has three full seasons in coach Chip Kelly's offense.

I agree they are clowns over at ESPN.  BUT this is a Michigan sports blog, and it's frustrating when the board gets filled up w/ OT posts like this and the actually relevant posts get pushed off the main page.  We haven't played Oregon in years, don't play them this year, and whoopty doo they have a freshman starting at QB over a Soph.

It wasn't that long ago when Lloyd surprised everyone the first game of the season and named true freshman Chade Henne as the starting QB over Matt Guttierrez and Clayton Richard.  We went to the Rose Bowl that year.  I hope Oregon has less fortune than us.

Guttierrez was injured, so they subbed in Henne and never looked back. However, Guttierrez was the starter.

Very conveniently and non-visibly. That's how you handle starting a true freshman ahead of a hyped redshirt junior. Would have been quite the controversy if Guttierrez hadn't been "hurt."

I live in Eugene, and apparently this isn't a surprise. 

Despite Bennett looking good last year when filling in for Darren Thomas, Mariota looked good in the Spring Game and Duck fans are in a frenzy over him. They are already saying he will be better than Dennis Dixon. Good luck with that...

Anyway, for what it's worth his name is apprarently pronounced MarioTAH, although I'm sure it will be pronounced incorrectly by everyone in the MSM.

Do you ever go? I live in Portland but have season tix (wife went to U of O). We tailgate near Autzen and watch Michigan games. Always looking for fellow M fans watch the games with.

I agree on the hype surrounding Mariota; it has been off the charts since the spring game.
