Probably not a shock but Fiddler played well against Auburn also.
On the football front, Rich Brooks was a lot more clear about the quarterback situation during today’s press conference than at any point last week, as he announced that Morgan Newton would start against Louisiana-Monroe Saturday, with Will Fidler likely seeing some first half snaps. Brooks said that it was “unfair” to Fidler after the way he stepped up in the fourth quarter against Auburn, but feels more comfortable bringing a veteran off of the bench. While I think he’s made the right decision, I find the logic puzzling. Personally, I’d prefer him to channel his inner Denny Green and say he’s playing to win the game with a quarterback with much more upside, mobility and zip on the ball, but that’s not really Brooks’ style. But, it hasn’t failed to this point yet, I guess.

Get both of those QBs some action under their belts and get Lindley back, maybe they can beat UT.

That 3 QB attack worked well against Auburn. Might as well keep it.
