Challenges for Tennessee
Tennessee fans are dancing in the streets after this lopsided win over Missouri and you can’t blame them. Anytime you win a league game on the road, it’s huge. The Vols did it in an impressive manner. Now they have to learn how to win after pulling off a big victory. South Carolina is no pushover. The Gamecocks are among the nation’s best at blocking kicks and intercepting passes. Those two are big-time game-changers. Tennessee cannot afford to overlook the Gamecocks.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 11:00 AM CT (12:00 PM ET). You can watch this SEC football game on the ESPN2 Network.
