Ultimate Guide to 2016 SEC Media Days | Bleacher Report
Get Ready for the Tennessee Buzz
Barring an upset of Mike Tyson vs. James "Buster" Douglas proportions, Tennessee will be picked to win the East when media votes are tabulated and released on Thursday afternoon.
When that happens, take a deep breathe, relax and understand that these will be uncharted waters for the Vols. Tennessee was last picked to win the SEC title in 2005 (it finished fifth in the East), and has been picked higher than fourth in the division one time since 2010 (last year, when it was picked to finish second behind Georgia).
When the Vols make the rounds on Tuesday, you can bet your bottom, top and middle dollars that head coach Butch Jones, quarterback Joshua Dobbs, linebacker Jalen Reeves-Maybin and cornerback Cameron Sutton will be littered with questions regarding the hype.
Can the Vols handle it?
That's the $64,000 question, and we won't know the answer until toe meets leather.
