Alabama will travel to Knoxville this weekend to take on the Tennessee Volunteers. It will be the first time that the Crimson Tide have returned to Rocky Top since being upset by the Volunteers in 2022.
Things will be a little different this time. Alabama is led by head coach Kalen DeBoer. One thing that remains the same is the fact that Tennessee’s head coach is still Josh Heupel and he still runs an up-tempo, high-powered offense.
On Wednesday afternoon, Alabama defensive line coach Freddie Roach elaborated on the importance of establishing depth and having his group prepared to play in a game of this magnitude.
