It appears Tennessee will have their starting quarterback after all against Alabama tonight. Hendon Hooker has battled back from a leg injury and is set to start tonight, per a couple of reports.
Matt Zenitz reported the news yesterday at On3, and WBIR now says the same.
Hooker left the Ole Miss game in the final moments, forcing Joe Milton to finish the final couple plays. Hooker took over for Milton early in the year, coming in after Milton was hurt against Pittsburgh. That’s really when the light came on for this Tennessee offense.
