Vols Offensive Line Trying to Make the Grade Against UT’s Talented Defensive Front

The Vols football team held their second pre-season scrimmage Thursday morning.
Tennessee is trying to build up their offensive line, but it’s gotta be tough since the Vols defensive front is so talented, led by pre-season All-American James Pearce.

Head coach Josh Heupel was asked if maybe, he has to grade his O-line on a curve, since the D-Line is so good.

Said Heupel:”There’s no grading on a curve in this game. I wish that was true about Saturdays. You better line up and be able to beat the guy in front of you. That may not happen every snap. Gotta happen more times than not. Our D-line is deep. Athletic. They play extremely hard. They’re playing really good fundamentally.”
