The 11th-ranked Tennessee football program has gotten off to one of its best starts ever under head coach Josh Heupel. Fresh off upsetting Alabama at home, the Volunteers enter this weekend's matchup at South Carolina at 6-1. As Tennessee looks to improve to 7-1, Heupel has stayed mum on who will start at quarterback against the Gamecocks Saturday. According to On3's Pete Nakos via X, formerly Twitter, it “would be a surprise” if sophomore George MacIntyre isn't the starting signal caller Saturday in Columbia.

“Tennessee head coach Josh Heupel says he won't name a starter this week against South Carolina, but it would be a surprise if it isn't George MacIntyre,” posted Nakos on Monday afternoon. “The second-year QB is now 2-0 as a starter, with a top-10 win over Alabama.”
