Tennessee Dominates Furman in Season Opener | Tennessee Volunteers Football News

Tennessee’s season opener against FCS foe Furman is set to be a showcase of dominance, as the Volunteers roll into the game with a revamped defense and elite offensive firepower. Furman, led by new QB Jake Garcia — a journeyman from Miami, Missouri, and East Carolina — brings a gritty, power-run offense and two solid tight ends to challenge Tennessee’s revamped defense under coordinator Jim Knowles. While Furman’s experienced line and All-American edge rusher Joshua Stoneking add intrigue, Tennessee’s top-tier offensive line, explosive run game led by DeSean Bishop, and talented receivers give them a massive edge. The Volunteers’ secondary, still adjusting after key losses, will be tested early — and with both Faizon Brandon and George MacIntyre getting reps at QB, the game’s outcome could be decided before halftime. Expect Tennessee to cruise to a decisive win and set the tone for a strong season. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
