Kansas State 2000 Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 KNOXVILLE, Tenn. -- Tennessee quarterback Casey Clausen's availability for Saturday's SEC showdown against Georgia is in serious doubt after a hairline fracture was discovered in his left collarbone. http://espn.go.com/ncf/news/2002/1009/1443336.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spain Posted October 9, 2002 Share Posted October 9, 2002 I didnt read your link, but word around here is that he is OUT. C J Leak(He started his freshman year at Wake Forest and then transferred) is the #2, but you could also see Kelly Washington gets some snaps. My thought is to give the 3 and take Georgia because Tennessee is in real trouble this week. Not that Georgia has impressed me, but the Vols have had way way way too many injuries to overcome this year. And with Classen out, they are going to get waxed by the Dawgs.

spain Posted October 10, 2002 Share Posted October 10, 2002 Classen said on the news he will play saturday. Of course, he was lying like a Baltimore Ravens player talking to the police. He is out, so Tennessee will have to take a Leak. C J Leak that is. Georgia will win this game, IMO Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest TNtitan Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Tennessee coach Phillip Fulmer said quarterback Casey Clausen was "making progress" Wednesday and denied reports the third-year starter has a hairline fracture in his left collarbone. Clausen has not practiced all week after hurting his left, non-throwing shoulder in last week's 41-38 six-overtime win over Arkansas. Neither Fulmer nor other team officials have described Clausen's injury, only saying he was probable for Saturday when No. 10 Tennessee (4-1, 1-1) travels to No. 6 Georgia (5-0, 2-0) for a key Southeastern Conference game. check sportsline.com's injury report. clausen is not even on it for some reason. i know he's hurting but to what extent is unknown.

spain Posted October 11, 2002 Share Posted October 11, 2002 TnTitan: I hope you are right about Claussen but all the local media folks in Nashville are saying that Leak is starting against Georgia tomorrow.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spain Posted October 12, 2002 Share Posted October 12, 2002 Leak started the game and played a couple of series. He was replaced by a true freshman named Banks. The defense kept them in the game or else the score could have been much much worse.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest TNtitan Posted October 13, 2002 Share Posted October 13, 2002 we can only hope this causes a QB controversy!! still doesnt change the fact that you should NEVER BET ON UT!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
