It’s probably safe to say that Pat Narduzzi is not a fan of the bowl opt-out trend. Coach Narduzzi was left with third-string QB Davis Beville (now at Oklahoma) to battle Michigan State in last year’s Peach Bowl after Kenny Pickett and a slew of others decided to leave. Now, with 2022 starter Kedon Slovis having also opted out (heading to BYU), back-up quarterback Nick Patti will get the start for the Panthers.
