The Crimson Tide travel to Knoxville for a high-level ranked-ranked matchup as No. 3 Alabama squares off against No. 6 Tennessee. This is a huge game for the Vols as they haven’t beaten Saban & Co. since 2006 (that’s 15 straight for the Tide for those keeping track at home).
Both teams are undefeated. Both teams have quarterbacks with Heisman Trophy aspirations. Alabama QB Bryce Young didn’t play last week against Texas A&M due to a shoulder injury sustained against Arkansas, but he’s expected to start against Tennessee.
Alabama is favored by 8.5 points, despite being the road team and not looking as dominant so far this season.
ESPN College GameDay’s Lee Corso was back on the show after missing a couple with an illness, and he returned with a bang. “I’ve been sick. Give me Tennessee,” Corso said with a grin before putting on the Smokey mascot head.
