Watch The Yellow Jerseys

Though Spring Practice ends, the quarterback battle is far from over. As I wrote a few days ago, the UCLA football coaches will not choose a starter anytime soon. Why? All the QBs are that good. If anything, this competition might not be resolved until 10 minutes before the opening game against the Virginia Cavaliers.

You will see what I am talking about on Saturday when the QBs, the guys in the yellow jerseys, get their turn in practice.

Now the thing is, with limited time, Mike Fafaul, Jerry Neuheisel, Asiantii Woulard and Josh Rosen should all get equal reps running the offense on the field, but it will not be a lot. Though the O-lines, receivers and running backs will have their first and second teams ready to go, the QBs are going to be all over the place. That is what happens when you have to balance reps between four good quarterbacks.
