Alabama vs. Tennessee 10/19/24
Let’s take a look at this matchup. We have No. 7 Alabama traveling to Knoxville to face No. 11 Tennessee. Now, Alabama is coming off a loss to Vanderbilt, along with a lackluster performance against South Carolina. Meanwhile, Tennessee, who were beaten outright as favorites on the road against Arkansas, also had a tough game last Saturday night against the Gators. The Gators are known for handling Tennessee well, but let’s focus on this matchup.
Alabama’s Defense Struggles vs. Tennessee’s Strengths
Alabama’s defense isn’t what it used to be. They’re giving up 342 yards per game, including 129 on the ground, which could be problematic because Tennessee is averaging 235 rushing yards per game and only allowing 80 yards per game on defense. I’m not sure why Alabama is favored at minus three, but I’m going to side with the better defense, the stronger rushing offense, and the better rushing defense, especially at home as a conference underdog.
Free Pick: Tennessee Volunteers +3
