Tennessee, now 5-1 after two recent wins, face a determined Alabama side tipped to cover the spread and get back on track.

Tennessee Rebounded From Loss With Back-To-Back Wins
Tennessee come into this matchup having rebounded from their first loss with back-to-back wins to improve to 5-1.
The Volunteers opened the campaign with three non-consecutive matchups, and ran out comfortable winners in all of them.
They blew out Furman 56-9 at home, before winning 45-24 at Georgia Tech and beating Kennesaw State 42-9 at home.
Tennessee then kicked off their SEC schedule with a 20-17 defeat to Texas, but they have rebounded with back-to-back wins.
The Volunteers downed Auburn at home, 24-14, before heading to Arkansas to beat the Razorbacks 24-17.
Verdict
Alabama’s perfect start was halted last weekend, but the Crimson Tide will not be pressing the panic button.
They have the offense to do damage and the defense to slow down this Tennessee group, so we are backing the visitors to get back on track.
