So that bullshite y'all keep spilling with no basis (like loading the box and we won't be able to run lol), is just that. Ignorant bullshite.

App state beat Michigan too one time.

It's the exception not the rule you fricking genius.

No one is saying that one or both of these guys won't develop into fine qbs, but as of today it's obv not there yet.

Let's just hope they are good enough until one blossoms to what coaches want.

You're plucking a few examples (and Indiana ISN'T a great example).

I've been watching college football for 5 decades, and in the vast majority of cases, a two QB system doesn't work. Sure, there are examples where it's worked, but overall, it doesn't.

Plus, let's be on the same page. A "2 QB system" means that two QBs actually play a good bit throughout a game and using both of them is part of the game plan. It's not a "2 QB system" when one QB replaces the other due to injury or bad play, etc.

I wouldn't say that JJ/JL was a 2 QB system. Yes, both played, but JL started due to JJ's suspension and JJ got back as a starter after JL failed against Bama. So not really a true "2 QB" system.
