Tennessee Picked the Worst Possible Nickname for its Offensive Line

Tennessee’s offensive line is great. The nickname the Vols picked for their offensive line is the worst.

About 175 miles north of Knoxville the University of Kentucky branded the bruisers in the trenches as the Big Blue Wall. The protectors of the BBN’s playmakers, the symbolism behind the Big Blue Wall matches the meaning. It fits like a glove. The nickname Tennessee chose forced a square peg into a round hole.

Tennessee has a ton of talent on its offensive line, with Trey Smith and Cade Mays poised to start on NFL offensive lines for years to come.
