Players to Watch
QB Iosefa Cox (R-Sr) | 6′3″, 233LBS | 82 OVR, 80 SPD, 88 ACC, 74 AWR, 87 THP, 85 SAC, 80 MAC, 85 DAC
‣ It's been downhill for Cox since their loss to Texas where he played well, throwing for 323 yards and two touchdowns. Since then, it's been six interceptions in two games and he's failed to complete more than 59 percent of his passes, including a career low 6.6 yards per attempt against Clemson. This Stanford defense is humming and will make life difficult for Cox.

HB Clarence Pratt (R-Sr) | 5′9″, 182LBS | 98 OVR, 91 SPD, 92 ACC, 99 COD, 89 CAR, 99 BTK, 96 SPM, 99 JKM
‣ The Vols best path to winning would be to establish the running game and they'll need a big day from Pratt. He's elevated into a feature role after splitting carries last year and still finishing with eighteen touchdowns. He's been effective when getting the ball this season, averaging 6.4 yards per carry but is only averaging 61.2 yards per game. He'll need a bigger load(pause)after carrying the ball just eight times in each of the last three games.

S Gabe Fatinikun (Sr) | 6′1″, 216LBS | 84 OVR, 84 SPD, 89 ACC, 91 COD, 75 MCV, 96 ZCV, 74 TKL
‣ Fatinikun will have his hands full as he will need to both help slow down Rodney Cookus at receiver while also providing help against the run. He's a fourth-year starter for the Vols and the leader of this defense which has struggled in recent weeks. Sam Houston and Texas really went after Fatinikun and Stanford will likely try to do the same.
