What we need to see from Tennessee football against Virginia

Virginia won three games last season, it was picked to finish
last in the ACC this year, and the Cavaliers will start an FCS
transfer at quarterback in its season opener against No. 10
Tennessee on Saturday in Nashville.


No wonder the Vols are a 28½-point favorite.


Josh Heupel’s teams are adept at steamrolling mediocre or meek
opponents – anyone remember last season’s 56-point win over
Vanderbilt? – and this matchup has the makings of a rout.


Not only is this a chance for Tennessee to start 1-0, it’s an
opportunity to calm a few lingering concerns.


On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer, Adam Sparks and John
Adams discuss what they need to see from Tennessee in this
opener.


Joe Milton will grab the reins of Tennessee’s offense, but
Milton’s performance isn’t an expected area of concern entering
the season.


Some areas for UT to address against Virginia: Offensive line
stability, pass coverage and pass rush.
