Another season of Tennessee football will kick off on Saturday afternoon at Neyland Stadium. It will be the second season under Jeremy Pruitt, the man picked by Phillip Fulmer to revitalize the football program.
Pruitt took his lumps in 2018, but seems poised to at least take a small step forward this season with added talent and a ton of returning starters.
Unlike last year, we don’t get a high profile opener. Instead, we get Georgia State — an opportunity to feel out this team a little bit before the heavy-hitters come later in the year. With Tennessee sitting as 26 point favorites in this one, here’s what I need to see to make it a successful day.
