Here's an interesting fact about freshman QB's and their chances of a national championship.....this is from a cbs sportsline article...
"Since freshmen became eligible in 1972, exactly one true freshman has led a team to a national title. Oklahoma's Jamelle Holieway ran the team after Troy Aikman went down early with a broken leg. Miami's Bernie Kosar was a redshirt freshman when the Hurricanes won their first title in 1983.
That's it. Thirty-three years, 40 national titles won during that span, two freshmen. "
