Bama has had problems defending the read option in the past so a heavy dose of that is probably the Vols best option... if you will pardon the pun there. Dobbs will need to get some runs off to keep the Bama defense in check but it is doable. Brandon Allen isn't known for his breakaway speed but he kept a couple of drives alive vs Bama by scrambling.

My guess is the Vols break 70 yards rushing unless this is a complete nightmare of a game for them. I don't think they hit 220 though.
