After losing to Florida on the game's final play, Tennessee had a hangover last week and nearly lost to downtrodden UMass before slinking away with a 17-13 win. Saturday's game against Georgia presents an excellent spot play for the Volunteers, and coach Butch Jones' future with the program might depend on the outcome. Despite its maddening inconsistency. Tennessee outplayed Florida most of the way and should at least by able to stay within a touchdown of the Bulldogs at Neyland Stadium.

This will be a really good game because I believe the Volunteers' defense is being underrated. The Vols can run the ball and they do a great job of getting off the field defensively. Georgia has been consistent as well. The difference is that the Bulldogs have a QB you can trust to not make the critical mistake. That’ll be the difference in the win -- and cover -- for the Bulldogs.
