Prior to Josh Dobbs taking the helm late in the first quarter against Alabama, the Tennessee defense had given up 31 sacks on the year. Since then, the Vols have given up 2, 1 to Alabama and 1 to Kentucky.

Mizzou has an elite pass rush, so that's obviously something to watch out for...

No eyebrows makes that QB slippery so defenders have a hard time securing the sack.

Kentucky and South Carolina have a less than stellar pass rush. Looking forward to seeing how the OL does against an elite pass rush.

I'm anxious to see how their OL fairs against our pass rush as well. Barnett and Maggitt are playing at a ridiculous level right now.

Can't wait for the game Saturday.

Dobbs' mobility I am sure has nothing to do with it.

How many of y'all's OL is out for this game?

That center looked like he got rolled up on pretty good in UK game.

We will be missing our starting center, our starting FS for the first half, and as of right now AJ Johnson.

All big losses, no doubt.

Back up center is in, likely an upgrade actually.

I'm really curious what Mizzou's game plan is try to contain / negate Dobbs.

Usually you try to take away their running and force them to beat you through the air, but Dobbs looks pretty damn accurate. So they're going to have contain the run and try to put him on his arse to force him out of rhythm.

Not to mention how Mizzou handles UT's pass rush.

It's gonna be a hell of a chess match.

In talent and potential yes, in knowledge of the blocking assignments and scheme. Not yet.

Your coach must be turrible if he's keeping the good players on the bench behind players that are not as good. That's Coaching 101. Geez!

Ankle sprain and torn MCL..

Backup is an upgrade physically but doesn't know the plays and how to get everything lined up as well.

I think you gotta start by taking Herd away. That kid is a beast.

I noticed we played a lot of press man-to-man against aTm saturday resulting in more coverage sacks. I think the corners are making big strides.

I really think that makes Dobbs the x-factor. Prayers sent to our LB's. Cant let him get to second level.

He's had issues with personal fouls, he's got a mean streak

You can take away Herd, but what are you gonna do about Hurd?
