This matchup between Alabama and Tennessee may be different from what it was two years ago.
The 2022 game at Neyland Stadium was electric as you had two NFL-caliber quarterbacks in Bryce Young and Hendon Hooker going at it in Knoxville, Tenn. Hooker carved up the Crimson Tide’s defense and the Volunteers offense produced a 52-49 victory, ending a 15-year streak of wins for Alabama over the Vols. Josh Heupel prides himself on having an uptempo attack filled with marquee plays, but does he have it this season? It has been a struggle for Tennessee as Nico Iamaleava is not Hooker.
