Insurance policies often aren't fully appreciated until they are needed.
The same goes for backup quarterbacks - the State Farm for State U.
The value of a capable backup passer cannot be under stated or overemphasized. At quarterback, more than any other position, depth can prevent a team from going off the deep end if the ever-present threat of injury becomes reality.

Rivals.com Top 10 Backup Quarterbacks
1. Hunter Cantwell, Louisville, Jr.
Filling in when starter Brian Brohm was injured, Cantwell has gone 3-1 in four career starts. The loss came against Virginia Tech in the Gator Bowl in his freshman year. Cantwell entered last year's game against Miami in the third quarter and immediately completed a 45-yard pass. In that 31-7 victory he completed three of four passes for 113 yards and a touchdown. He threw four touchdown passes while directing victories over Kansas State and Middle Tennessee. In his career, Cantwell has completed 58.7 percent of his attempts for 1,340 yards and 10 touchdowns.



2. Jarrett Brown, West Virginia, So.
Brown did a nifty impression of starter Pat White in a 41-39 triple-overtime victory over Rutgers. With the injured White sidelined, the strong-armed Brown operated the spread offense smoothly. He passed for 244 yards and ran 40 yards for a touchdown while posting 317 yards of total offense. Brown completed 59.6 percent of his passes for 384 yards and two touchdowns last season. He also rushed for 176 yards and three scores.

every wvu fan will tell you they feel fine in a worst case sceniro i mean we def dont want white to get hurt, but brown is a great backup, i also thought that lousiville were done last year wen brohm got hurt after bush was already hurt.
