Tennessee and Kentucky will meet for the 113th time on Saturday. The Vols are 79-24-9 all-time against the Wildcats and hold a 37-14-3 record against UK when the game is played in Lexington.

UT has won the last five games of the series. In 2016, Tennessee took a 49-36 win in Knoxville thanks largely to a strong showing by quarterback Joshua Dobbs, who went 11-for-17 for 223 yards and three scores and also rushed for 147 yards and two touchdowns on 14 carries.

The Vols are 31-1 in their last 32 games against Kentucky.

UK last defeated Tennessee on Nov. 26, 2011, when the Wildcats took a 10-7 win in Lexington.

True freshman cornerback Shawn Shamburger led Tennessee with 12 tackles and his first sack in his first-career start at No. 1 Alabama. Shamburger's 12 tackles were the most by a true freshman since Brian Randolph had 12 against Kentucky in 2011. His 12 tackles were also the most by a Vol in an SEC game this season.

Late in the second quarter, Alabama quarterback Jalen Hurts completed a 34-yard pass to Irv Smith Jr. and Shamburger stripped the ball from Smith. The ball rolled out of the back of the end zone. However, Jonathan Kongbo was called for illegal hands to the face, negating the turnover.

Shamburger has played in all seven games for the Vols this season and has 13 tackles.

Redshirt senior punter Trevor Daniel is a nominee for the Ray Guy Award and ranks second in the SEC and fourth nationally among FBS punters with an average of 47.7 yards per attempt.

Daniel leads the SEC and ranks second in the Power 6 with 18 punts inside the 20. He also has seven punts inside the 10.

His 45.7-yard average is the best in Tennessee history and ranks second among active NCAA punters, regardless of division.

Remember Evan Berry housing a KO against KY 2 years ago? Anybody heard an updated status on his return ? Is he shut down for the year?

Does anyone know if Scott is planning a flea-flicker for today's game?
More importantly, do our Wide Receivers know?
