Football

Eric Berry, who's one of 12 semifinalists for the Jim Thorpe Award and one of 15 semifinalists for the Chuck Bednarik Award, is not worried about breaking the interception return record because he's grading out higher this season than last (duplicate link).
Memphis receivers Duke Calhoun and Carlos Singleton together are 13'1" tall.
UT has succeeded on seven fourth down conversions in a row.

Lots of good feature pieces on Memphis native Dan Williams this week, including this one from UTSports.

Oskie at 3SIB shares some behind the scenes pics of the Tennessee-South Carolina game and includes a witty comeback to a displeased Ohio State fan in attendance.

Vols in the Fall takes the lull of Memphis week and uses it to take stock of the 2009 season so far.

Basketball

Tennessee beat Lincoln-Memorial last night 97-58, forcing the Railsplitters into 30 turnovers, limiting themselves to only 17, and outrebounding the opponent 48-34. Scotty Hopson, who scored 20 points in the first exhibition game, scored 20 again last night on 7-9 shooting. He looks thicker and appears to be more aggressive this season.
