Storylines to follow in Alabama’s epic matchup with Tennessee

The top storylines in Alabama’s epic rivalry matchup with the Tennessee Volunteers.

[autotag]Nick Saban[/autotag] and the Alabama Crimson Tide football team survived another scare this past Saturday with a 24-20 win over Texas A&M.

Now coach Saban and the Crimson Tide will shift their focus to the battle between two top-ten teams as Alabama travels to Knoxville to take on the Tennessee Volunteers.

Both Alabama and Tennessee enter the contest with undefeated records and the Volunteers are looking to put a 15-year winless drought to the Tide to an end.

There is plenty to be excited about relative to this matchup, but today we will look at what I believe to be the most important storylines in the rivalry matchup between Alabama and Tennessee. Better known as the “Third Saturday in October”.
