Updated OCT 10, 2026Tennessee carries quarterback question into Arkansas
What Happened
Tennessee’s quarterback uncertainty will follow the 4-1 Vols into Fayetteville on Saturday, Oct. 10, when they visit 2-3 Arkansas at 4:15 p.m. ET on SEC Network. George MacIntyre played the second half of Tennessee’s 24-14 win over Auburn on Oct. 3 after Faizon Brandon appeared on the league’s injury report before the Arkansas game. The severity of Brandon’s injury and Tennessee’s starter have not been announced. The change could alter an offense that rode DeSean Bishop for 220 yards and three touchdowns against Auburn. Tennessee is 1-1 in SEC play, while Arkansas is 0-2 and has lost three games against power opponents by an average of 29 points in Ryan Silverfield’s first season as coach. A Tennessee win would keep the Vols in the SEC race and carry momentum into Alabama’s visit to Knoxville; an upset would damage their conference and playoff path.
