The No. 6-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide, with the sting of last week's 20-17 home loss to Georgia still fresh, gets another stiff test when they travel to face the No. 14 Tennessee Volunteers on Saturday in another meeting of the "Third Saturday in October" rivalry. No team in the SEC is scoring more than Alabama (5-1, 3-1), which averages over 44 points per game behind the play of sophomore quarterback Keelon Russell. Tennessee (5-1, 2-1) is paced by a punishing rushing attack led by DeSean Bishop, and a defense that ranks No. 1 in the conference.
The home team has won the last four matchups in this series. The Vols are expected to start George MacIntyre at quarterback, while opening-week starter Faizon Brandon is listed as questionable on the availability report.
