No. 6 Tennessee has been a well-oiled offensive machine since Josh Heupel arrived in Knoxville.

Many were wondering if the Volunteers would be able to move the ball at will against No. 3 Alabama on Saturday.

So far, it hasn’t been an issue.

The Vols scored quickly to take a 7-0 lead early in the 1st quarter and have just struck again on a 36-yard TD pass from Hendon Hooker to Jalin Hyatt.

Tennessee already has 116 total yards and it’s only midway through the opening quarter.

The long TD pass has the Volunteers in the lead, 14-7, with the Crimson Tide looking to answer in a game that’s looking like it will live up to the hype.
