ESPN has updated its bowl predictions for all of FBS after a wild Week 4.
Tennessee is gearing up for a Week 7 contest against the Arkansas Razorbacks. Right now, the Volunteers are on the outside looking in when it comes to the College Football Playoff field, as 2 different ESPN analysts have them playing in bowl season instead.
Mark Schlabach has the Volunteers taking on Michigan in the Cheez-It Citrus Bowl, while Kyle Bonagura has them taking on NC State in the Duke’s Mayo Bowl.
Tennessee still is control of its own destiny, as the Volunteers lone loss happened in an overtime thriller against the Georgia Bulldogs. After the game against the Razorbacks, the Volunteers have a trip to Tuscaloosa to take on Alabama.
The Volunteers were off last week after knocking off Mississippi State last weekend in overtime. Quarterback Joey Aguilar has been one of the best quarterbacks in the SEC, as he has thrown for 1,459 yards, 13 touchdowns and 5 interceptions. If he is able to limit the interceptions, the Volunteers have an offense that is capable of scoring with anybody in the country.
Kickoff against the Razorbacks is scheduled for 4:15 p.m. ET, and the game will be on the SEC Network.
