Syracuse vs. LSU: Tim Lester Says Walk-On QB Zack Mahoney is 'The Guy'

As of right now, the starting quarterback for the Syracuse Orange when they take on the No. 8 LSU Tigers on Saturday will be a walk-on JuCo transfer making his first FBS start.

So there's that.

"Right now Zack is the guy that has shown the most, and he's the most consistent with the things that we're doing, and we feel confident he can execute all the parts of our passing," Lester said.

"I wanted to ease Zack in because he had never played," Lester said.
