Tennessee will start redshirt freshman Jarrett Guarantano at quarterback in place of Quinten Dormady as the Volunteers seek to bounce back from their first shutout loss since 1994. Head Coach Butch Jones said that Guarantano would get the starting nod this Saturday (October 14, 2017) when Tennessee (3-2, 0-2 SEC) hosts South Carolina (4-2, 2-2). Guarantano has gone 12 of 24 for 54 yards passing with one touchdown and no interceptions this season. He also is more mobile than Dormady, though he has gained only 6 net yards on 10 carries thus far. Dormady had thrown six interceptions and lost two fumbles in Tennessee’s last four games. Tennessee is coming off a bye week after losing 41-0 to 4^th ranked Georgia on September 30.
