Tennessee to be without one its top defensive players against South Carolina
Tennessee will look to move to 10-1 on the season tonight at South Carolina.
The Volunteers will be shorthanded, however, on the defensive side of the ball in the game.
Per reports, standout senior linebacker Jeremy Banks will not be available for Josh Heupel’s team against the Gamecocks.
The tough news for Tennessee is that senior LB Jeremy Banks is out tonight.
The OK news for the media is that won't change postgame for us because we've never talked to Banks during his five-year college career.https://t.co/HCzc030KMe pic.twitter.com/r0JFvebMa3
