Looks like Alabama is making a QB change.

Tyler Buchner expected to start for Alabama at USF, sources say - ESPN

Sophomore Tyler Buchner is expected to start over Jalen Milroe when the 10th-ranked Crimson Tide play at South Florida on Saturday (3:30 p.m. ET, ABC), sources told ESPN's Chris Low. Buchner, who transferred from Notre Dame in the spring, took the majority of first-team reps in practice this week, sources said.

Milroe started the Crimson Tide's first two games, but he threw two interceptions in Alabama's 34-24 loss to Texas last week.

Buchner played under Alabama offensive coordinator Tommy Rees last season when both were at Notre Dame. He played in mop-up duty during Alabama's season-opening 56-7 win over Middle Tennessee, completing 3 of 5 passes for 27 yards.

If I was a NFL QB1 and this happened, I'd be PO'd but I'd laugh all the way to the bank. Can't help but feel sorry for a college QB though. I am glad the portal nowadays allows a bigger "marketplace" where college kids can transfer to other schools that may consider them an upgrade.
