Muschamp hopes that by naming Driskel the starter, it will allow him to relax during the game.
Muschamp on Driskel: "It will be Jeff's game to play. I told him I don't want you looking over your shouder, but you've got to play well."

Driskel played in five games last season as a freshman. He attempted 34 passes that season for the Gators.
