No. 6 Alabama heads to Knoxville as an 8.5-point favorite over No. 14 Tennessee on the third Saturday in October.

The Alabama Crimson Tide has plenty of talented players on their roster, but one player could be the Tide’s key to success. That player is quarterback Keelon Russell. Russell has taken over as Alabama’s starting quarterback in his sophomore season and has quickly become one of the most important pieces of Kalen DeBoer’s offense.
