Bonus: The LATEST on the quarterback battles at Alabama, UGA and Ohio State
Few people would disagree that Alabama, Georgia and Ohio State are going to be three of the top-five teams in the nation this upcoming season. Many people would say they would be the top-three teams and just argue on the order of each of them. Something that cannot be argued is the fact that all three of these teams are thin on quarterback experience as Bryce Young, Stetson Bennett and CJ Stroud are all moving on and names like Jalen Milroe, Carson Beck and Kyle McCord are being talked about but none of those three have locked down their position battles and one program could still be looking to the portal for reinforcements. It is not rare that the top of football is this unsettled at quarterback, and we felt it was a great time to sit down with people who cover these teams to get the latest as spring ball is done for most and the long wait to the fall is underway. Join us along with Tony Tsoukalas of TideIllustrated.com, Jed May of UGASports.com and Tony Gerdeman of BuckeyeHuddle.com as we talk quarterbacks.
