The Tennessee football season kicks off in just a matter of days. Year two under Jeremy Pruitt will see plenty on changes, featuring 16 returning starters and a new direction on offense. Here’s a quick preview of what you can expect from the Vols in 2019.

Guarantano got his first taste of experience in the final year of Butch Jones, playing behind an offensive line that had been devastated by injuries.
