Summary
Vanderbilt coach Clark Lea has named freshman quarterback Jared Curtis the starter for Saturday’s home game against NC State.

He replaces senior Blaze Berlowitz, who started Vanderbilt’s first two games. Curtis will make his first college start when the 2-0 Commodores face the 1-1 Wolfpack at 12:45 p.m. ET on SEC Network.
Key takeaway
Curtis takes over Vanderbilt’s offense after a three-touchdown performance against Delaware and will make his college debut as a starter against NC State.
