No. 3 Tennessee hosts FCS UT Martin at Neyland Stadium on Saturday at noon (SEC Network).

Follow along here and on Twitter @TennesseeRivals for notes, tidbits and more.

No matter the result in the SEC Championship game. Also, a close loss to GA and they win out and we are in. Nice to have to options to get there. No hiccups against other teams along the way.

Some thoughts here:

Brett McMurphy projecting Tennessee-Georgia rematch in Peach Bowl, which is a playoff semifinal game this year.

The site says Fiesta Bowl, but his tweet said Peach. I’m guessing it was a mistake.

That is a very, very good number.

Yards per play is a great stat to look at.
For some people, 4 ypc and 8 ypa are sorta what should be considered "par" more or less. 8.9 yards per pass attempt is quite good.

Looks like Hendon didn't have enough attempts to qualify for the national leaders, but the 9.6 he averaged in 2019 would have put him at 7th in the nation (or tied for 6th).

His 8.9 in 2020 would have had him at about 18th:

EDIT on 10/3/2021:
Not sure why but ESPN's site is currently busted with the links to prior year yards per attempt rankings.

Is there a recording of the CBS broadcast? Obviously, I didn't record it and would enjoy being able to re-watch and listen to the commentary. We had a group that watched at Wings, ETC on Lovell Road (great venue, BTW) and it was too loud to hear much of what was being said.

I'm sure there will likely be a re-broadcast on one of the cable channels, but I'm looking for the CBS 'version'. TIA!

The offensive line did a fantastic job keeping the Alabama defenders off of Hendon hooker today as well as opening some nice holes in the running game.

Nobody has been complaining about them all season but nobody’s been giving them any credit for the fantastic job they’ve done all season.

What do y’all think?

How many of you still believe the Darpa/CIA message that all internet news is Conspiracy?
Great Awakening seems to be happening. If anyone believes Fox, Msnbc, Cnn...I just can't help those.

From @luke.winstel:

Been off the board for a year or so. What happened to the GQ?

Houston gives an overall update with detail on his relationship with the Vols' coaching staff:

There is no confirmation that the five-star WR who is committed to Ohio State but was heavily involved with Tennessee will be in Knoxville this weekend.

Some of his IMG teammates are visiting for this weekend's game and they're trying to convince him to come but there has not been a determination yet whether Tate will make the trip yet.

I'll update when I find out more.

@luke.winstel and @Jake Nichols are gathering reaction from a number of recruits that were in attendance for the Alabama game:
