Welcome to the rivalry, George MacIntyre.
Tennessee’s sophomore QB made the first start of his career against Arkansas in Week 6 and was 18-of-20 passing for 247 yards with a TD and two interceptions.
He replaced Faizon Brandon, who is listed as questionable on UT’s availability report.Alabama has at least one interception in each of its six games this season and has picked off just over 5% of opposing QB’s passes.
The Tide have been stingy against the rush for the most part, but this could be a game for DeSean Bishop to carry the Tennessee offense if the Vols can pull the upset.Bishop has rushed for 678 yards on just 107 carries and followed up his 220-yard performance against Auburn with 19 carries for 138 yards and a TD against Arkansas.Alabama will be without star wide receiver Ryan Coleman-Williams after he suffered a lower-body injury against Georgia and was not 100% in the second half.
Lotzeir Brooks has become the 1B to Coleman-Williams’ 1A in the pass game, and Coleman-Williams’ absence should open up more opportunities for WR Rico Scott and TEs Kaleb Edwards and Marshall Pritchett.Follow along below for highlights, analysis and more:
