What Butch Jones said after Tennessee lost to Alabama for the 10th straight time
Published:
On Saturday, No. 1 Alabama lived up to its billing — as it defeated No. 9 Tennessee by a score of 49-10.
The Volunteers had a bear of a time moving the ball offensively. Quarterback Josh Dobbs was limited to a myriad of short throws, and UT rarely threatened downfield.
After the game, head coach Butch Jones addressed the media:
Butch Jones: "They're the No. 1 team in the country and rightfully so. Sometimes, they just line up and say 'we're better than you.'"

Butch Jones: It's real simple. It's a line of scrimmage league and when you get out-rushed like we did (438-32) you have no chance.
