Tennessee’s upset of Alabama became a defining moment of the 2022 season. Rivalries provide the backdrop for college football’s greatest games, and when the Vols beat the Crimson Tide for the first time since 2006, joyful fans lit cigars, tore down the goal posts, marched them out of the stadium and baptized them in the Tennessee River.

Show us an NFL scene that matches that.

Tennessee beat Alabama 52-49 in a game in which the quarterbacks combined for 840 passing yards.

Don’t expect a repeat of that.

On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and John Adams examine the Third Saturday in October rivalry matchup.

The duel of Hendon Hooker vs. Bryce Young became an instant classic. This game projects to go much differently.

Later in the episode, Adams busts out his trusty panic-meter and applies it to struggling coaches Jimbo Fisher, Sam Pittman, Shane Beamer, Hugh Freeze and Zach Arnett, as well as on-the-upswing Billy Napier. Plus, Week 8 picks!
