HOOVER, Ala. -- Quarterback questions once again linger around the Southeastern Conference heading into preseason camps. For a league that seems to mass produce NFL-caliber talent, the QB position lately seems to be the one exception to that trend.From Tuscaloosa to Athens, the quarterback competition appears as heated as ever.Its getting to be more and more of a trend, it seems to me, Georgia coach Kirby Smart said at the leagues media days this week. It used to be theres a lot of good quarterbacks, and you hated that as a defensive coordinator for the last eight or nine years you were facing some really talented guys. And it seems to be theres more question marks every time we have this event.Why is that? I dont know. Theres more turnover, more transfers, more competition, more guys coming in to compete. I dont think it inhibits the league at all.Beyond Mississippis Chad Kelly, Tennessees Joshua Dobbs and perhaps Texas A&Ms Trevor Knight, the SEC is full of unknown commodities at quarterback. There are ongoing battles around much of the league, and still inexperienced starters taking over teams like Missouri, Kentucky and Vanderbilt.The SEC has had three quarterbacks drafted in the first round since 2010, and two -- Johnny Manziel and Tim Tebow -- are currently out of the league.It hasnt held Alabama back, at least. The Crimson Tide will start a quarterback with little collegiate experience for the third straight year, whoever claims the job, but has managed a national title and two playoff appearances. Cooper Bateman (one career start) is the only candidate whos thrown a pass in college and hes competing with David Cornwell and Blake Barnett.Saban said there isnt a clear front-runner going into camp.Somebodys got to win that job, he said. Somebodys got to win the team. That hasnt necessarily happened yet.The offenses and seasons for teams like Auburn, Missouri and South Carolina sputtered with quarterback issues last season. LSUs SEC title bid stalled when even Leonard Fournette couldnt override an inconsistent passing game.A significant exception is Texas A&M, which appears to have solved its QB dilemma with Knights transfer from Oklahoma after two former five-star passers left the program. Aggies coach Kevin Sumlin wasnt interested in bringing in a graduate transfer during their initial conversation, but then Kyler Murray and Kyle Allen left the program.Our conversations changed dramatically after that went down, said Knight, a former Sooners starter who won the starting job in the spring.There has been another influx of five-star QBs like Mississippis Shea Patterson and Georgias Jacob Eason, who is challenging returning starter Greyson Lambert for the job. They were the two top rated quarterbacks nationally in the 247Sports composite rankings. Alabamas Barnett was one of the top quarterback recruits last year.Heres a snapshot of some of the other quarterback situations:- Floridas expected to start Luke Del Rio, a former Alabama walk on who transferred to Oregon State before returning to the SEC.- Kentuckys Drew Barker, Vanderbilts Kyle Shurmur and Missouris Drew Lock all are expected to start after logging time as starters last season.- South Carolinas Perry Orth is facing competition from mid-year enrollee Brandon McIlwain.- Mississippi State is trying to replace the programs most prolific passer, Dak Prescott. Its a four-man competition among sophomores Nick Fitzgerald and Elijah Staley, junior Damian Williams and freshman Nick Tiano.- Auburn might turn to another junior college transfer in John Franklin III since Jeremy Johnson and Sean White both struggled as starters. That contributed to the Tigers disappointing season after being widely projected as SEC contenders.Newton and Nick Marshall wound up leading Auburn to national championship games straight from the JUCO ranks. Alabamas Jake Coker and Blake Sims thrived in their lone seasons as starters.Maybe from that group of new guys, there will be another Newton, Marshall or Johnny Manziel, who enjoyed swift rises to stardom in their first -- and, in Newtons case, only -- season as starter in the SEC.In years past we had these same question marks, Smart said. People arose. Certainly at this time no one knew who Cam Newton was, and he was amazing. Nobody thought they knew what Nick Marshall would do. Nobody thought Blake Sims was going to do it. Nobody gave Jacob Coker a lot of credit either. Bulls Jerseys China . The Swede became the first golfer to win the PGA Tours FedEx Cup and European Tours Race to Dubai in the same season.

The Lightning are 2-0 so far on a four-game road trip, giving the club five straight wins as the guest and improving Tampas away record this season to 11-8-2. SAO PAULO, Brazil -- Lewis Hamilton believes Red Bull has the pace to challenge Mercedes at this weekends Brazilian Grand Prix -- even if the race stays dry.Rain is forecast for the weekend, but on Thursday and Friday thunderstorms arrived in the late afternoon after the race is expected to finish. Red Bull should be strong if its wet at Interlagos, but Max Verstappen and Daniel Ricciardo also showed impressive pace in the dry during Friday practice, with Verstappen just 0.030s off Hamiltons fastest time of the day.Hamilton needs to win this weekends race to boost his championship chances and ideally needs rival Nico Rosberg to finish fourth or lower in order to put the battle back in his hands ahead of the final round in Abu Dhabi. Finishing ahead of the two Red Bulls on the podium would be the perfect scenario for Hamilton, but does not believe rain is necessary for that to become a reality.I dont think so, I think the Red Bulls look like they are very close, they are definitely in the run for it, he said. I think naturally if its wet then that mixes it up a lot and it enables others to get close.Hamilton has never won in Sao Paulo and has been beaten by Rosberg at the the last two Brazilian Grands Prix. Although Hamilton was quicker tthan his teammate in both Friday practice sessions, he lost 0.dddddddddddd4s when temperatures rose in the afternoon session.In FP2 my lap wasnt really that great but I know for tomorrow it will be stronger. Today has generally been very, very strong, as oppose to last year, I feel much happier in the car.Definitely. I think in previous years Ive struggled with rear end and this weekend that doesnt seem to be a problem so I hope that continues. And also I prepared a little bit differently for this weekend and it seems to be working so far but theres still close competitors so I need to make sure that I stay on top of my game.Asked what it would mean to him to win at his hero Ayrton Sennas home race, Hamilton added: Its something Ive been working towards for many, many years and Aryton was my favourite driver and I seem to have a lot of support here in Brazil even though Im not Brazilian so its the one grand prix that Ive not really won. Of course Baku is on the calendar but otherwise Ive won everywhere else, except for here. This one is definitely a very, very special one. I guess Ive left the best till last. ' ' '
