Tennessee Defense Tested Against Georgia Tech | Tennessee Volunteers Football News

Tennessee’s defense crushed Furman, but Georgia Tech is the true litmus test—can they sustain pressure, lock down the secondary, and hold the line against a tougher opponent? Five key questions loom: Can Xavier Gilliam stay dominant without carrying the load? Will Arion Carter’s return spark linebacker depth? Can the pass rush distribute pressure beyond Gilliam? Can the secondary stay sharp in a raucous road environment? And most crucially, can the front seven maintain gap integrity to force third-down stops? Consistency for four quarters is the only way Tennessee proves they’re ready for prime time. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
