The injury bug has bitten Tennessee's offensive line yet again, this time ending the season of redshirt sophomore Austin Sanders. Sanders suffered a torn bicep, the same injury that struck senior Marcus Jackson last week.

Head coach Butch Jones confirmed the news following Thursday's practice session.

"We have lost one individual, so it is number two in terms of a season-ending injury, and that is Austin Sanders," Jones said. "We lost him the other day, and he will be out for the entire year.
