Alabama Squares Off Against the Volunteers Under the Lights on The Joe Gaither Show

It's a rivalry edition of Football Friday on "The Joe Gaither Show on BamaCentral" with Caleb Sisk, Theo Fernandez, and Henry Sklar as we take our final look at the Third Saturday in October. The program opens by interviewing Sisk from Vols On SI, then gets into keys to the game for Alabama, and players to watch before making our picks for the biggest games of the weekend.

The program opens with a conversation with Sisk as we get an inside look of the Tennessee Vols. Sisk details how Joey Aguilar has fit into Josh Heupel's offense, discusses the health of DeSean Bishop, the development of the Tennessee defense and more. Sisk plays along with the spirit of football Friday and selects his three players to watch for the Vols ahead of the rivalry game.
