re: Vols fans- chances of beating OU?

OU's offensive line was a mess against Bama (multiple starters out, replacements playing positions they weren't accustomed to) yet they performed pretty well against the Tide due to Coach Bedenbaugh (OU's O-Line coach).

OU is replacing 3 linemen with juniors/seniors, not 3 true/red-shirt freshmen. There's hope.

We have key skill players returning with RB Samaje Perine, WR Sterling Shepard, LB Eric Striker, and LB Frank Shannon (returning from a 1 year suspension).

Quarterback play will make or break this team against Tennessee. I'm curious to see how we'll respond if we get punched in the gut and lose the lead early in a hostile environment.
