Tennessee position groups graded after South Carolina game

A positional report card for Tennessee football graded the Volunteers' position groups based on their performance against South Carolina, in a piece published by Sports Illustrated. Report cards of this kind assess each unit separately rather than judging the team only by the final result.

The individual grades were not included in the material available for this story, so no unit is singled out here as passing or failing. The piece itself is presented as an evaluation of how Tennessee's groups performed in the South Carolina matchup.

For Tennessee fans, a report card offers a more detailed way to read the game: which areas held up, which struggled, and where the Volunteers most need improvement coming out of the South Carolina contest.
