Another week… Another opportunity for Kentucky to face a backup quarterback? Maybe.
Mississippi State’s senior quarterback Tommy Stevens went down after back-to-back sacks in the second quarter of the Bulldog’s game against Southern Miss two weeks ago. He started for the Bulldogs the following week, but he was pulled from the game in favor of true freshman Garrett Shrader, who also came in for Stevens following the initial injury. Stevens’ shoulder has been “stiffening up” during the games, potentially affecting his passing ability and accuracy.
Bulldogs head coach Joe Moorhead noted Stevens’ health is further along this week than it was before the game against Kansas State last Saturday.
