Tigers travel to Knoxville for a challenging game but remain outside the polls. Episode 6 of the Birmingham News Sports Podcast, hosted by Jon Solomon. He is joined by columnists Ray Melick and Kevin Scarbinsky to discuss: Auburn, which is 4-0 through four home games but not ranked. There are 17 undefeated Division I-A teams and only five are not ranked: Auburn, South Florida, Texas A&M, UCLA and Wisconsin. Also, Auburn-Tennessee, an intriguing game in Knoxville this week No. 3 Alabama, which plays Kentucky this week. The Tide is rolling on offense and defense lately and thorougly shut down Arkansas last week. But in the process, Dont'a Hightower was lost for the season with a knee injury. Alabama played fine without him for three quarters. What impact could his absence have on the rest of the season? Tim Tebow's concussion suffered last week at Kentucky. It happened with Florida leading 31-7 and about four minutes left in the third quarter. Kevin wrote this week that Urban Meyer should have his own head examined for risking Tebow's health and Florida's national title defense by playing him when the game was out of hand.
