What PFF's Grades and Snap Counts Show About Tennessee's Win Over Alabama
The film grades are in from Tennessee's 26-10 victory over Alabama. Sports Illustrated published the PFF grades and snap counts from the Week 7 win, the player-by-player accounting of who produced for the Volunteers and how much each man was on the field to do it.
Snap counts tell their own story alongside the grades. They show how the coaching staff distributed playing time in the biggest game of the season to date, which rotations tightened, and which players the staff trusted when the outcome was being decided. Together, the two sets of numbers offer one of the clearest public measures of individual performance from the win, even if the individual grades themselves sit beyond the headline.
For Tennessee fans, the breakdown is a chance to check the eye test against the data. For the staff, it is one more data point as the Vols turn toward South Carolina with their rotations looking increasingly settled.
