USC faces Utah team still searching for No. 1 quarterback
Utah is ranked No. 19 in the nation, but the Utes are still searching for a No. 1 quarterback.
Travis Wilson will start on Saturday night against No. 20 USC, but Kendal Thompson also could play.
The two-quarterback system is not ideal, Coach Kyle Whittingham said.
“Bottom line, we would love for one of them to take ownership and become the guy, because I’m not a two-quarterback system fan,” Whittingham said.
Wilson, a 6-foot-7, 233-pound junior from San Clemente, has passed for 833 yards and seven touchdowns, with no interceptions.
Thompson, a 6-2, 192-pound junior who transferred from Oklahoma, has passed for 301 yards and two touchdowns.
