Tennessee's line still has plenty of work ahead. As much as they've improved, the Vols still have allowed the most sacks of any team in the SEC. Tennessee is rushing for only 3.4 yards per carry, the lowest average in the SEC.
"Every day's a blessing," Gilliam said. "Every day's a gift right now for me."
After giving up 30 sacks in its first seven games, the Volunteers have allowed just two sacks the past two games. In its most recent game, Tennessee didn't allow any sacks and gained 645 yards — the fourth-highest total in school history — to rally to a 45-42 overtime victory at South Carolina.
The reduced sack totals coincide with Dobbs' arrival as Tennessee's main quarterback. Dobbs brings mobility that the Vols lacked with Justin Worley,Wholesale China Jerseys, who started Tennessee's first seven games before tearing the labrum in his throwing shoulder.
Injuries made the transition tougher. The Vols have started five different combinations on the offensive line.
That performance gives Tennessee (4-5, 1-4 SEC) reason to feel good about its line play heading into Saturday's game with Kentucky (5-5, 2-5).
Tennessee was the only Football Bowl Subdivision team that opened the season without any returning starters on its offensive line. Tennessee had to replace three players now in NFL starting lineups: Miami Dolphins tackle Ja'Wuan James, Kansas City Chiefs guard Zach Fulton, and Atlanta Falcons center James Stone.
Gilliam, a former walk-on, exemplifies this line's ability to endure amid adversity. Gilliam began the year as Tennessee's starting left tackle, only to tear an anterior cruciate ligament in the season opener. He returned to action 2 ½ months later and performed capably enough to take over as Tennessee's starting right tackle when freshman Coleman Thomas missed two games with an ankle injury.
"We said (earlier this season) to stay off social media, ignore what outside people are saying,Wholesale Jerseys 2017, don't listen to relatives or whoever's calling in saying this and that," Kerbyson said. "Just do your job, keep your head down, keep digging, keep digging for gold. You never want to give up and think, 'What if?' "
Dobbs' presence certainly has helped, but the line itself also deserves plenty of credit.
Yet the line continued working to improve and finally may have found a lineup that works. The line had its best performance of the season against South Carolina with Kerbyson at left tackle,Wholesale Jerseys, junior Marcus Jackson at left guard, junior Mack Crowder at center, freshman Jashon Robertson at right guard,Cheap Jerseys Free, and senior Jacob Gilliam at right tackle.
But they're at least finally heading in the right direction.
"Of course we haven't arrived or anything," Robertson said. "We still have a lot of stuff we can improve on, that we're going to continue to improve on."
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — The emergence of quarterback Joshua Dobbs is helping Tennessee's young offensive line show signs of growth.
Although Thomas now is healthy enough to play,Cheap NFL Jerseys, Jones said Gilliam would remain the starting right tackle.
"It's huge," junior tackle Kyler Kerbyson said. "We hadn't had a game yet where we had those kinds of numbers as an offensive line. It gives us a lot of confidence in our whole offense, in the fact that we've got some real playmakers behind us who can make us right when we're wrong,Cheap NFL Jerseys, and we can score a lot of points when we need to."
"We're still a work in progress," Tennessee coach Butch Jones said. "I do believe they've continued to grow and develop."
