5.Β Brandon Bridge (South Alabama – Senior) Mississauga, Ontario
Will compete for starting quarterback job in his senior season. Β Played two seasons at Alcorn State (2010-11) and as a freshmen recorded 2,687 yards of total offense while helping the Braves to a 5-6 mark … Completed 150-of-291 pass attempts for 2,086 yards and 19 touchdowns … Rushed for 601 yards and eight scores on 120 carries.
