They used Alcorn to pass and Clark to run. They did it once Burda went down. Their passing game wasn’t really getting anything going and he came in and did a pretty good job I’d say. Interesting to see what happens going forward.
Valpo parents said Clark never came back in game. After burda went down. So the backup did the rest of game. And as for Clark. Have heard he has a AC joint sprain. But nothijg confirmed
He was in running the ball in the 4th Q. He scored their Toucjdown to go up 35-0
I do see from the scoretracker that Clark did have a rushing touchdown in the fourth quarter. Looks like that made the score 35-6, though, and not 35-0. Portage's lone touchdown came in the third quarter.

So did they have Alcorn and Clark both in at the same time or was it more of a rotating situation at quarterback once Burda went down?
It looks like they were rotating every series

I wonder if that was the plan -- to give themselves a look at Alcorn in a game that on paper really did not seem like it would be a game (and turned out to be that way as well).

Were they rotating them prior to Burda's injury?

No only after he went down

Might be worth watching to see if Burda is injured if they will look to install some plays with both on the field at the same time. Clark carried a lot of rushing load from his normal QB position.

You've been awfully quiet lately Parkhurst. Finally accepted the demise of Merrillville football at the hands of the Valpo Vikings? Or, patiently waiting to get chesty if the Pirates can go on a heater? BTW, as a disgruntled Bears fan, welcome to QB hell as the NFL has figured out how to defend Jordan Love. You were spoiled with the Favre and Rodgers era.

No we know what bad QB play is about. And Love is bad. Enjoy it.
