After a two-interception day for sophomore Riley Neal on Oct. 8, it would've been hard to blame head coach Mike Neu for considering a change at quarterback.
But Neu put that idea to rest at his press conference on Oct. 10.
"Riley is the starting quarterback," he said. "He's gonna come back and respond with mental toughness. He's put a lot of time in, and deserves the opportunity to come back and see what he's made of."
Riley Neal — 2016 statistics
Passing touchdowns — 6
Interceptions — 6
Rushing touchdowns — 3
So Neal will be the starter when the team trots onto the field at Buffalo on Oct.
