This game represents one of those dichotomies in football. For instance, I've always been (easily) amused seeing fan throw the touchdown signal up for field goal. And then, when an opponent misses one? The touchdown signal. 
This game? I LOVE this week. And, I woke up this morning in a "bad mood" thinking about UT.

In the words of @Brandon Van de Graaff I got up this morning........went outside, and pissed in the general direction of Knoxville.

Alabama Offense = Shit
Tennessee Defense = Tin Horn
Let’s keep it this way

IMO this Alabama - Tennessee game could get ugly quick. I know The Vols are an up and down team but this Bama team is down. When I watch the HC talk, his pre and post press conferences, his body language and etc is troubling. I fully understand it’s his first year and I, along with everybody else, knew there would be growing pains. Before the season I had already accepted the fact they would probably lose to Georgia, Tennessee, and possibly to Missouri and LSU. However, with the current way they’re playing all games are now probably a loss or toss-up. If it’s not turned around by the coaching staff the players on this team that do care will hit the transfer portal. Again, unfortunately IMO Ryan Willians will be one of those players. RTR

Another interesting game, depends on how focused the team is going into the game. I know the environment is going to be tough on the secondary and defense this week so we'll definitely need to be better with communication. I could see this going a ton of different ways but I think it'll ultimately be a competitive game and hopefully Bama leaves with the win.

Yeah. Really could be. He is tied with their safety for the lead in the number of tackles this season. That's Brooks, the safety, who will be forced to come up in run support now.

Arian Carter is a ball player. I imagine if we can minimize his impact we can see success.

13 Minute mark. Deboer comments on calling defenses when teams do something new & how far to adjust off the game plan since the players may not have a diverse backround to referrence from seasons before.
He's actually pretty detailed. Nice to see.

I'm not sure I saw that on any of the film I watched. Yea there were some obvious running downs like 3rd and 1 where they lined up in 3-point stances across the board and the entire stadium knew they were running. Outside of that though, looking at some of the plays, pad level was consistent across the board. Nobody is giving a tell or anything in particular.
Since I rewatched everything and provided that breakdown, it's easy for me to note that South Carolina changed how they defended us throughout the game and Sheridan did a very good job of calling plays IMO. The ones that were negatives were not because of play calling but instead because of execution or poor reads.
EDIT: Yea I re-watched 3 series on offense, there's no indicator on pad level or stances. Just South Carolina calling a run blitz into some runs here and there.

This is looking for and more like a game I'll not watch. Listen, but not watch.
It's an orange out weekend. I hate the color orange before I associated it with Tennessee. @alabama mike the advantages of black and white.
