STARKVILLE — Wesley Carroll saw his first college football game at Neyland Stadium. Loved Rocky Top, the Tennessee song. He's still a huge Peyton Manning fan.

Think Saturday's 1:30 p.m. game against No. 25 Tennessee at Scott Field is huge to the Mississippi State freshman quarterback?

"It puts a little extra incentive on it," Carroll said with a smile after Monday's practice. His father and a handful of other family members graduated from Tennessee.

MSU coach Sylvester Croom said Monday that while Carroll will start, he still intends to use Michael Henig some Saturday.
