Tennessee vs. South Carolina: Rocky Top Talk Staff Predictions

Tennessee goes back out on the road Saturday to face a South Carolina team which has beaten the Vols the past two seasons.

Unfortunately for Tennessee, it limps into this game off a 58-21 thrashing from Alabama, but even more importantly on the heels of the news that star offensive lineman Trey Smith is out indefinitely after doctors re-discovered blood clots in his lungs.

Will Tennessee pull off the road upset as an eight-point underdog?

Conner Knapp: South Carolina 27, Tennessee 23

(Season: 5-2)

The loss of Trey Smith has a lot to do with my pick.
