GoVols247's Patrick Brown and Ryan Callahan preview Tennessee's crunch matchup with Oklahoma at Neyland Stadium on Saturday night.

First we recap the first SEC availability report with the latest injury updates on Colton Hood, Arion Carter and Jermod McCoy.

Then we discuss the state of Tennessee's defense and why the Vols have regressed so far this season? We look at the numbers that have dropped off from last season and try to pinpoint a reason why Tennessee has struggled. Can the defense be fixed in-season?

Next, we looked at the matchup with the Sooners, who have lost two of their past three games. Oklahoma is led by an elite defense, but one that gave up a lot of yards and points to Ole Miss last week. And what do we make of QB John Mateer's recent struggles?

Finally we touched on some Tennessee recruiting news, including a recent decommitment and the visitors to know on a big recruiting weekend.
