8. Injuries
While improvement is important, it seems like most college football coaches would be fine to get through their spring game with no major injuries. That might be especially true for Tennessee this year with at least 18 guys already on the shelf going into Saturday’s game. Most of them are expected back early in the summer, but any additional major injuries on Saturday could put player’s availability for the start of the season in question. That’s the last thing the Vols want.
