The Third Saturday in October is upon us, and that means it’s time for the Alabama Crimson Tide to take on the Tennessee Volunteers in one of the SEC’s oldest and deepest rivalries. It is already one of the best rivalries in college football, but with all that’s at stake this weekend, it’s one of the most important match-ups of this college football season.
The Tide currently rides a 15-game winning streak against the Volunteers dating back to before Nick Saban’s tenure. However, this Volunteers side may be the best we have seen in some time. They are carried by Heisman Trophy hopeful Hendon Hooker and will have the whole city of Knoxville rocking behind them on Saturday in what will be an insane environment.
Experts have made their picks for his highly anticipated matchup, and it appears to all be leaning in favor of the Crimson Tide.
