Challenges for Alabama
Quarterback Hendon Hooker is the offensive weapon that the Vols were missing for several years. He’s passed for over 7,200 yards and 63 touchdowns during his four years at Virginia Tech and Tennessee. He’s got more than just stats. He’s a winner with swagger. Bama has to somehow figure out how to put a damper on Hooker.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 2:30 PM CT (3:30 PM ET). Watch this SEC football game on the CBS Network.
