The Phil Fulmer Farewell Tour continues this weekend in Athens. 

After racking up a whopping 13 points at home against Northern Illinois, the Vols hit the road to face a Georgia program that has been backed into a corner by an early loss to Alabama. 

The ‘Dawgs have won nine of their last 10 coming off a bye week, and this had to be a particularly focused stretch of practice for the team tabbed as the preseason pick to win the national championship.

To get that campaign back on track, Georgia needs a healthy Knowshon Moreno and they need a win over a Tennessee team that held the star running back to a career-low 30 yards last season.
