The Tennessee Volunteers have gotten off to a rough start this year, to put it mildly. The Vols have losses to Georgia State and BYU on their resume and have also lost to Florida and Georgia.

Sitting at 1-4, their only win thus far has come against FCS Chattanooga, which isn’t exactly something to write home about.

Now, after Oregon State beat UCLA on Saturday, one Reddit user revealed that Tennessee is the only Power 5 program that has yet to pick up a win over an FBS school in 2019.

Yes, that’s right, even Rutgers and Kansas have wins over FBS schools this year. And things aren’t looking good for the Vols’ chances in the immediate future.

The Vols host Mississippi State next weekend before traveling to Alabama the following week. Those games could both get ugly if Tennessee isn’t careful.
