Joey Aguilar made his Tennessee football debut this past Saturday in a dominant 45-26 win over Syracuse. The Senior quarterback finished the season opener with 247 passing yards, 34 rushing yards, and 3 touchdowns.
On the other side of the country, former Tennessee quarterback Nico Iamaleava made his UCLA debut. Nico threw for 136 yards, one touchdown, and one interception in an embarrassing 43-10 loss to Utah.
Longtime Tennessee rival and infamous hater of the Vols, Steve Spurrier, weighed in on Aguilar's debut and praised his performance over Nico's season last year.
"[Nico Iamaleava] had some so-so games, really, at Tennessee.
