Last Meeting: Alabama beat Tennessee 52-24 inside Bryant-Denny Stadium to extend its streak over the Volunteers to 15-straight games. But the game was closer than the final score indicated. It was a back-and-forth affair until Alabama poured on 28 points in the fourth quarter to pull away and seal the game. 

Bryce Young was 31-43 for 371 yards and two touchdowns while running back Brian Robinson Jr. added three rushing touchdowns. Hendon Hooker gave the Alabama defense fits early on, and he finished with 282 yards and two touchdowns.

Last Time Out, Alabama: With Bryce Young held out with a shoulder injury, the ball was placed in redshirt freshman Jalen Milroe's hands to run the Crimson Tide offense. Alabama turned the ball over four times with Milroe being responsible for three of the four (two fumbles and an interception.) Will Reichard missed two field goals, and Texas A&M had a chance to win it on the final play of the game. 

Haynes Kings' pass sailed incomplete, and Alabama held on for the 24-20 win over the Aggies. Running back Jahmyr Gibbs had his second consecutive 100-yard rushing performance, and Jermaine Burton had his first touchdown reception since week one against Utah State.

Last Time Out, Tennessee: The Volunteers went down to Baton Rouge for the first time since 2010 and completely handled business against LSU. Tennessee jumped out to a 20-0 lead over the Tigers in the first half and never looked back in the 40-13 road win. 

Tennessee racked up over 500 yards of total offense. Hooker had 239 passing yards and to touchdowns, and running back Jabari Small had his best game of the year with 127 yards and two touchdowns.
