    Seems to be one of the bigger games this week or at least one that I think might be entertaining.

    Tenn has show some real spunk even in losing and I wouldn't be shocked if the Vols upset the Tide in this one.

    I feel it's going to be hard fought and close:

    Bama 27
    Tenn 24

    Vols are an interesting team for sure. If they just could have finished the games vs OU, UF and Ark they'd be 6-0 instead of 3-3.

    I expect Alabama to win handily, but if they show up flat after the big road win then Tenn can be a problem.

    I think Dobbs is very good and I know Kamara is good. The Alabama defense has grown into a beast. Consistency from Coker I think is the key. If he does not turn the ball over then I think Alabama wins. If Coker does turn the ball then Alabama will be in trouble (reference Ole Miss game)

    kp is your starting center going to be back? The running game went down when he went to the bench.

    Terry,
    It doesn't look promising right now. They are not saying much except he is progressing. With all of the information on concussions that has come out lately, I hope they are very careful and that appears to be the case. Hopefully, with the backup getting all of the reps in practice this week, he will have a better game. It will be interesting to see if Tennessee sells out to stop the run early in this game.
