The Tennessee Vols' matchup in Athens this weekend with the Georgia Bulldogs is easily the biggest game of the year (at least so far).

Whoever wins this game will likely win the SEC East and should be in a great spot to make the College Football Playoff.

Georgia is favored in most sportsbooks by 8 points.

But can Tennessee break through and get their first win in the series since 2016?

It won't be easy, but a couple of opposing coaches think it's very possible.

ESPN recently spoke to numerous head coaches, assistants, NFL scouts, and staffers about the Tennessee/Georgia game.

And one coach isn't particularly impressed by the Bulldogs' defense.

One of the coaches that ESPN spoke with feels like the Vols will put up 50 points against the Bulldogs.

The anonymous coach doesn't have a lot of faith in Georgia's secondary.

From ESPN:

"I won't be surprised if Tennessee scores 50," one coach said. "Georgia's front is average. Their back end is below average. They really miss William Poole [who left the team early in September]. I don't think their corners are special. The [Kelee] Ringo kid, he doesn't run nearly as well as you'd expect. The others are just OK. They're going to run right by those corners."

Another coach that ESPN spoke with had the same view of Georgia's secondary.

From ESPN:

"Where they have the biggest issue is at corner. I think Ringo is really good. But opposite of him, they've shuffled some guys around," another coach said. "They lost [William] Poole, which was a big loss. [Lassiter] has been starting. And after that, there's some freshmen. If there's one weakness to me, it's their depth at corner. When they play someone like Tennessee, that can get exposed. We tried to attack whoever was in at corner opposite of Ringo. I think that would be their only true weakness."

I know a lot of folks hate anonymous quotes from coaches — especially when they're critical — but this is one of the only times that coaches speak honestly and don't hold back. This is the stuff that would never be said during a press conference.

By the way, if these coaches are correct and Georgia's secondary is that suspect, it could be a long day for the Bulldogs. Generating pressure on Hendon Hooker will be their only chance at slowing down Tennessee's offense if the secondary is compromised.

We'll see how it plays out on Saturday, but there are certainly plenty of reasons for Vols fans to be optimistic as Tennessee heads to Athens for a massive showdown with Georgia.
