2. Taisun Phommachanh & D.J. Uiagalelei

Both backup quarterbacks are hitting the bye week at a perfect point.

D.J. Uiagalelei has shown streaks of greatness through his first two appearances, but has still not been turned loose yet. The Tigers now have film for the true-freshman to go back and watch and learn from, which is extremely valuable to his development.

The third-string QB- Taisun Phommachanh- also now has some game film to go back and watch. While Phommachanh has struggled in the passing game, this week gives both him and Uiagalelei a chance to reset and learn from the things they’ve done on the field in actual game situations.
