No.1 – Jake Fromm, Quarterback

The Bulldogs can win in multiple different ways; sophomore quarterback Jake Fromm is one of them. So far this season, Fromm ranks second in the SEC standings in completion percentage at 72.46 percent only behind Tua Tagovailoa. Both quarterbacks are ahead of SEC-leading pace that Tim Couch set in 1998 with a completion percentage of 72.3.

At the current moment, it appears Tagovailoa is in a class of his own, but Fromm is playing solid football and should be considered one of the best quarterbacks in the SEC. He owns a nine-to-two touchdown-to-interception ratio and holds a QBR of 199.67.

Fromm is coming off back-to-back games with three passing touchdowns, and in those two games, he only threw one interception.

Head coach Kirby Smart was not too pleased with how the entire game against Missouri went, and that includes the passing attack. Look for Fromm and the wide receivers to come out ready to score some points against the Vols.

If Tennessee has a chance, it starts with stopping or limiting these five guys. Fromm would be a great starting point. Once you take a quarterback out of the game, you never know what can happen.
