In what has started to look like a game of musical quarterbacks, the Bruins have been forced to open up a can of worms with injuries to starter Ben Olson and second-stringer Pat Cowan.

After last week’s debacle against Notre Dame, redshirt sophomore Osaar Rasshan will switch back to quarterback after playing as receiver this season and freshman Chris Forcier will be given a look under center.
There are a lot of decisions to be made by the coaching staff as Olson is out at least three to four weeks with a partially torn lateral collateral ligament in his left knee and Cowan, out with a partial MCL tear, is an unknown in terms of being able to play Oct. 20.

“We’re looking at all of our options,” coach Karl Dorrell said after Tuesday’s 6 a.m. practice. “You know Pat obviously is one of our options, if we can get him healthy. Keep bringing Mac (Bethel-Thompson) along and get him better. We’re using Forcier to get him a chance to get some reps and get him better. We’re giving Osaar some reps in the two, so we’re using every resource we have in trying to use this week to get guys ready to play.”
