Hendon Hooker breaks Tennessee record in game vs. UT Martin

Hendon Hooker just keeps getting better. The quarterback added to his list of accolades on Saturday, breaking a program record as he has now thrown a touchdown pass in 19 consecutive games.

That’s been one of the biggest storylines to follow along with Hooker as he’s shown tremendous improvement as a passer since transferring — something that has played a role in his huge ascension. Heading into this game, Hooker had completed 70% of his passes for 1,817 yards with 15 touchdowns and 1 interception.

Coming off of a 52-49 win over the Alabama Crimson Tide, Hooker has completed 13-of-18 passes for 195 yards with 2 touchdowns as Tennessee leads UT-Martin, 31-7.

Expect Hooker to continue to make a national name for himself with important games like the contests against Georgia and Kentucky still remaining on the schedule.
