Tennessee football LB might be the most underrated player in the country

With so many Tennessee football players picking their game up this season, it's easy for some guys to get overlooked. However, where is the national love for linebacker Arion Carter? Time and time again, Carter has looked brilliant this campaign and the same was the case in Week 5.

Against Mississippi State, Carter was a force all over the field. He finished with a mind-blowing 17 tackles on the day. Not only that, but in the overtime win, he came up with the game-sealing pass deflection on 4th down for the Bulldogs. On the year, Carter now has 49 total tackles, which is No.
