Playoff QBs include a hometown recruit, a prep title rematch and some 1-year hired guns

Associated Press  

Kevin Jennings wasn’t even the player that Rhett Lashlee was going to watch when he went to his first Texas high school playoff game a week after becoming SMU’s coach. Jennings led South Oak Cliff to a victory that day, and later won the first state title for a Dallas Independent School District team since 1958. SMU or Penn State will move on to play there New Year’s Eve against Boise State, with Maddux Madsen the Broncos starter for the first time this year in his third season there. Even if fifth-year Georgia quarterback Carson Beck can’t play after getting hurt in the Southeastern Conference championship game, redshirt sophomore Gunner Stockton is an original Bulldog.
