Mark Stoops changes his tune when it comes to Kentucky’s QB plan against Mizzou

The Kentucky Wildcats beat the Vanderbilt Commodores 14-7 on Saturday to move to an impressive 6-1 on the season, but the passing game needs some serious work.
In the win over the Commodores, QB Terry Wilson only completed three of his nine pass attempts for a measly 18 yards and a touchdown.
On Monday morning, coach Mark Stoops said the team was sticking by Wilson, but would have other players ready. Later that evening, he seemed to change his tune a bit, saying the plan is now to play many different guys:

“We will do what we feel is best to put our team in the best position to win.”

It sounds like Wilson will get the start at Mizzou on Saturday night, but if the offense is struggling, a change could be made quickly.
Will Touchdown Terry bounce back against Mizzou’s weak pass defense? We’ll find out quickly on Saturday in Columbia.
