Game Preview: Alabama continues their road travels with a trip to Neyland Stadium. The Crimson Tide are coming off a win over Arkansas while the Vols suffered an overtime loss to Texas A&M.

Tennessee has had one of the more remarkable starts to the season. They have started most games out slow and have gained steam in the second half in the most improbable ways. Their good fortune came to an end against the Aggies, but Tennessee did force overtime in a game they were trailing by double digits.

Alabama has one of the more dynamic offenses fans have seen under Nick Saban. Freshman quarterback Jalen Hurts has given Alabama a dual-threat that they have not typically had at the position. Their defense is stellar with several NFL caliber players. They will provide a difficult matchup for the Vols offense.
