- QB Bryce Young: What makes Young College football's most outstanding player, are the big point scores he always delivers whenever the opponents are the best. Dice up Tennessee: can he?
- LB Will Anderson: Probably the most imposing figure along the line of the nation, Anderson shall be called to the duty of choking Hooker and the Volunteers’ run outlet.
- WR Jahmyr Gibbs and Jermaine Burton: Having defenses from other teams key on him in passing, Young has tried to build new receiving threats in Higgs and Burton. This game will be a stiff challenge to some of the new wideouts.

- QB Hendon Hooker: A prospect from the bench before coming to Tennessee, Hooker certainly will contend for the Heisman as a virtue of his time with Heupel. This gives him two threats of problem, his dual-threat ability.
- WR Jalin Hyatt: No one expected sophomore Hyatt to light it up as the starter after gaining only 86 total yards last year as a freshman. His speed ensures him to stretch any defense that comes across his path.
- LB Jeremy Banks: The tackler par excellence, Banks makes sure Tennessee’s Linebacking core is complete. To have those kinds of numbers against them they needed him to have a ‘monster’ game against Alabama’s ground game.
