You are Locked-on Balls, your Daily Tennessee Volunteers Podcast, part of the Locked-on

Podcast Network, your team every day.

Welcome into Locked-on Balls, the Daily Tennessee Podcasts. My name is Josh Ward.

Thank you for being here today. Tennessee is halfway through the week. Getting ready for

Auburn on Saturday on today's show.

I'll look at both sides, getting ready. Tennessee and Auburn for the game this upcoming weekend,

as both teams have something to prove. Both teams have some similar issues to work out.

Auburn trying to do that with probably better personnel overall. Auburn's a big favorite going into the game,

although that number is changing a little bit. I'll tell you about that, what the betters might

be thinking about this game going into this upcoming weekend down on the plains. You'll hear

from Tennessee head coach Jeremy Pruitt today. Offensive lineman, Drew Richmond. He believes

Tennessee is a better team than it

has shown through the first five games of the season. He'll tell you why and what Tennessee needs

to work on heading into this weekend. A couple of notes from Tennessee's practice on Tuesday as well.

It was the first time in five or six days since we had seen Tennessee on the practice field. I'll get to

that coming up in just a moment and take a look at recruiting for Tennessee. Last week was an off

week in terms of no games for the balls, but they spent part of the week practicing, and Tennessee's

coaches spent a lot of the week working on recruiting and traveling this past weekend on the recruiting trail.

So Jesse Simonton, a Volkest a little bit later on the show on that.

And some interesting numbers David Ubin discovered looking at Jared Garantano, how he's performed

this year to last year.

It's a loaded show, I'm telling you.
