Okay, even RS-SO QB's?

It seems like this very critical aspect has been overlooked.

I used to have a list of NC starting QBs going back to the 1970s, but I lost it.

Probably close to the same as Qbs that throw for 35 yards a game. Not too many.

This is what I've got for underclassmen who started for NC teams since WWII:

1942 -- Charley Trippi ??? (So., Georgia)
1946 -- John Rauch (So., Georgia)
1952 -- Bill Brigman (So., Georgia Tech)
1959 -- Dick Easterly (So., Syracuse)
1966 -- Terry Hanratty (So., Notre Dame)
1968 -- Rex Kern (So., Ohio State)
1973 -- Richard Todd (So., Alabama)
1983 -- Bernie Kosar (RS Fr., Miami-FL)
1985 -- Jamelle Holieway (TR Fr., Oklahoma)
1987 -- Steve Walsh (So., Miami-FL)
1990 -- Shawn Jones (So., Georgia Tech)
1991 -- Billy Joe Hobert (So., Washington)
1992 -- Jay Barker (So., Alabama)

HONORABLE MENTIONS:
1988 -- Tony Rice (Jr., Notre Dame) [did not play at all his freshman year in 1986 due to new Prop 48 rules]
1985 -- Troy Aikman (So., Oklahoma) [was hurt midway through the season, and replaced with wishbone QB Jamelle Holieway; subsequently transferred to UCLA]
