“I think Mariota played really, really good,” said Oregon defensive coordinator Nick Aliotti after the spring game. “I’m not a quarterback coach, but I thought he was fantastic.”
Mariota threw the ball for over 200 yards and a touchdown, also rushing for 99 yards and two scores with his feet. Bennett had thrown for over 200 yards and a touchdown pass as well. It's pretty clear that Bennett provides the more experience, but Mariota provides the dual-threat ability, which would fit perfect in this high-scoring offense.
“I’m pleased with our quarterbacks,” said head coach Chip Kelly.“(It’s) not a position I’m worried about.”
