He gained a lot of respect from his teammates tonight, and many others, but he still has a lot to learn, as evidenced by some of his rookie mistakes. I feel like UK's defense wasn't up to par, or even up to a triple bogey, which helped Bridgewater shine a little more than he should have, so we don't need to get too overly excited and expect to see him starting....the right defense could crush him easily, about like the beating Hunter Cantwell took from Virginia Tech's defense in the Gator Bowl a few years ago. Bridgewater will get there eventually, but at least he's now going to probably get a bit more playing time than he might have originally after tonight's display.
