Take Two: Does it help to withhold Kickoff Week QB announcement?

Six unquestioned incumbents removed much of the drama from August quarterback competitions in the Big 12. Last week, TCU named Kenny Hill as its starter, and Kansas State tabbed Jesse Ertz on Monday.

So for our Take Two this week, we discuss the benefit of withholding a starting QB announcement until the season opener.
