Arkansas’ defense had to prepare for two quarterbacks in its last game at South Carolina.

It looks like the Razorbacks will have to prepare for two more at Mississippi State.

Arkansas might see this guy some on Saturday

Junior college transfer Tyson Lee has been running the Bulldogs offense for the second half of the season, but opening day starter Wesley Carroll saw time in one series against Alabama last Saturday. Carroll — who threw for more than 400 yards against Arkansas last season — was expected to play a much bigger role in the Bulldogs’ season than he has so far, but has had a disappointing year. He started the first four games, but was benched in favor of Lee and hasn’t seen much time since.

However, MSU coach Sylvester Croom didn’t rule out the fact that he could use Carroll in certain situations against the Razorbacks on Saturday. Then again, what coach would? It’s much more fun to make a team prepare for two quarterbacks whether you intend to use them both or not. However, Croom said he went with Carroll for the series against Alabama because he runs the option better than Lee.

Carroll, of course, told the Jackson Clarion-Ledger he’d be happy with more time.

“Hopefully, we’ll be able to do a little more of that,” Carroll told the newspaper. “That way, defenses have to prepare for two quarterbacks. And it is tough whenever you’ve got two quarterbacks with different styles.”

We’ll have more on MSU’s two quarterbacks later this week. We’ll also have an update on Arkansas’ quarterback situation as well as Casey Dick and Nathan Dick try to get the starting nod.
