Freshman quarterback Harrison Bailey improved in the Tennessee football Volunteers’ win at the Commodores.

For Tennessee football‘s true freshman signal-caller Harrison Bailey, Week 15’s road trip to Nashville, Tenn. brought his first career win in his second start for Rocky Top. While splitting time with redshirt sophomore J.T. Shrout, Bailey was 14-of-18 passing and threw for 207 yards and two touchdowns in the Vols’ 42-17 win over the Vanderbilt Commodores.

The road-win against the helpless Commodores was exactly what Bailey and the rest of the Vols’ young roster needed.
