7. Shy Tuttle, DT
Shy Tuttle finally broke through against Florida this season, totaling three tackles including a crucial one late in the game. It had been a long journey back from injury for the junior, and now is the time for him to really prove he’s back with a test against Georgia.
Tuttle suffered a season-ending injury against the Bulldogs in 2015. He played against them last year, but his injury occurred in Neyland Stadium two years ago against Georgia. You ave to imagine Tuttle remembers that well. And Tuttle probably wants revenge on the team that ruined his freshman season.
Expect Tuttle to rotate in even more in this game than he did against Florida, and he will want to prove that he’s “back” in this game.

One of Jones biggest problems is that he plays mind games with his players with regard to playing time. Call it an inferiority complex, he has to show people whose in charge. Case in point Bituli. A tackling machine but held out because of mental mistakes. Really? Jones, you’ve had two years to coach him up. You can’t be afraid to play 2-3 string players; that’s what has gotten you in trouble (Hurd is a great example).
