Tennessee Football Countdown: 11 More Mondays Until Gameday

Just 11 more Mondays until the Vols take on Georgia Tech at the brand new Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta!

The number 11 has a rich history at the University of Tennessee. From Daryl Dickey to Joey Kent to James Banks to Josh Dobbs — I have no shortage of players to spotlight today.

Joey Kent is probably the biggest name on this list. Kent was a four year player at Tennessee, starting for two of those years. He was able to put up back to back 1,000 yard seasons with Peyton Manning in 1995 and 1996. He was taken in the second round of the 1997 NFL Draft by the Oilers and appeared in a Super Bowl with the Tennessee Titans.
