Tennessee had one of its best rushing games against the Gators in recent history last year with 254 yards on the ground. That would’ve been enough to win the game if not for a late defensive breakdown. Asking for 250+ again might be a little much, but hitting 200 is a goal the Vols can reach, and if they do, they’ll have a good shot in this one.

It won’t be easy. It’ll take Jalen Hurd, Joshua Dobbs, Alvin Kamara and possibly others all stepping up with a lot of help from the O-line. Tennessee will have to be creative, because Florida’s defensive front will make it difficult. But hit a couple bigs ones, and then let Hurd get the tough 3-and-4 yards runs consistently, and it can be done.
