Challenges for Tennessee
Alabama is limiting opponents’ third down conversions to about 22.6 percent. The Tide’s offense may struggle if Bryce Young can’t play but Bama’s defense is pretty stout too, limiting opponents to about 12.5 points per game. The Vols must figure out how to solve the Alabama defensive brick wall obstacle. Vol quarterback Hendon Hooker is likely a major part of that solution.
Saturday‘s game kicks off at 2:30 PM CT (3:30 PM ET). Watch this SEC football game on the CBS Network.
