The coaching staff is certainly expecting a calmer Justin Worley this week. The Vol staff wasn't sure exactly what to expect from Worley a week ago. They expected mistakes and they expected some butterflies, but they didn't expect Worley to be as nervous as he was to start the game. It really took Worley about a quarter to settle down and even manage the huddle.

I expect the kid to look totally different this week.

The kid has skills. I was impressed by several throws he made. His only real problem last week was between his ears. He will be fine once he gets some confidence and can slow the game down.

I don't think he meant that the way you took it.

If I played South Carolina and then MTSU I would look better as well. (though as a disclaimer against South Carolina my stats would be 4 Completions 35 attempts 93 yards 1 TD 5 ints) thanks to Lane breaking a long 85 run on a screen pass.

MTSU for me would be more like 9 Completions 32 attempts 1 TD 56 yards 3 ints

I expect double his productivity

I look for him to handle the administrative part of the game with much more savvy. I expect him to look like less of a freshman with huddle mgmt and checks. Is that better?

Running game should look good too. If I was UT's line I would want to squash the blue boogers.

Some of those throws to Arnett and the one to Darick were definitely showed some talent

some of the other decisions obviously left a bit to be desired

Who could blame the guy for being nervous, 1st time U R the #1 QB in front of 100,000 fans in a big game and U R THE guy? MTSU game will be great for him, settle down, and prepare him for the next round of games. He'll need to have his wits about him for the next 3 games for sure and the rest of the team needs to do their part.

No...no...noo...this can't be!! There are too many people just sure we wasted his gold-like redshirt and that he will never be good enough to win this year.

Yeah, he will get better, as all guys do after they have been out there for awhile. IMO he didn't play terribly against SC, just a few weird calls put him in some tough spots.

I didn't see the lack of arm strength the Rivals guys used to justify keeping him a 3*. His throw to Rogers was about as good as you can do it.

The team didn't help him, but he definitely had a terrible game. The good thing is he got many mistakes out of the way last week, and will have already learned from them. Lots of time and room for continuous improvement.

Oh Lord, don't talk about his attitude at the Vol Walk. It breaks tradition if he's nervous on the Vol Walk.
