Probably one, with the other being the 3rd string guy.

Maybe neither, though.

Both should redshirt barring injury. Rivers needs as many snaps as possible when the score allows.

I dont see Rettig seeing the field unless mett and rivers get injured.

I would put a 2% chance on them putting in some plays for Jennings if he is ready, but I think they'll both redshirt, which is fine with me.

If Rivers really isn't viewed as a future starter, I have no problem with one redshirting and the other getting a backup spot if he emerges as the clear cut better of the two freshmen. At least that way, you can maybe keep both of them around claiming that they can both still have an opportunity to be our starting QB in the future.

It probably won't work out that way though.

I think they both redshirt. One of them will make it to the number 3 slot of the depth chart by the end of the season though and it will be interesting to see which one.

It's very doubtful either will need to play this season. So they'll both redshirt. If one of them doesn't, then both Mett and Rivers are injured.

I wouldn't mind them redshirting one and not the other to stagger their years.

Both of them, IMO.

both will RS

One (or maybe both) will not be here 5 years from now, so why burn a year with garbage time, that they could use when they transfer?

IMO Jennings has a chance to play sooner than Rettig. I like the thought of splitting their eligibility up.

They will both redshirt unless something catastrophic happens

If Jennings or Rettig burns a redshirt, LSU will be in trouble. It means Mett gets hurts and Rivers either gets hurt or gets beat out by a true freshmen.
