Tennessee football has found its starting left tackle, while the Vols search for stability on the interior of the offensive line.

Hype is reaching a crescendo for quarterback Joe Milton, and Dont'e Thornton doesn’t lag far behind as the recipient of preseason hyperbole. And Tennessee’s cogs on defense are apparent.

Those are a few things we’ve learned from Vols preseason practice, with a little more than two weeks remaining until the season opener against Virginia on Sept. 2 in Nashville

On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer, Adam Sparks and John Adams review top storylines that have emerged throughout August.
