What's the most important game on Tennessee football schedule? You can probably guess

Perhaps it goes without saying. We’ll say it anyway.


The Third Saturday in October will be the most important game on
Tennessee’s 2024 schedule.


Oh, sure, we realize the importance of a few other games. When
the Vols face Georgia in mid-November, Kirby Smart’s Bulldogs may
well be ranked No. 1. Tennessee’s September date at Oklahoma,
Josh Heupel’s alma mater, will be another biggie. And be careful
about overlooking an October game against Florida. 


Still, it feels as if Tennessee’s path to the College Football
Playoff could go through Kalen DeBoer and his Crimson Tide. 


On today's episode, hosts Blake Toppmeyer and Adam Sparks assess
Tennessee’s schedule and its path to the playoff.


The 12-team playoff is big enough for a handful of SEC teams. The
outcome of Alabama-Tennessee may decide one of the playoff’s
final at-large bids.


Also in this episode, Sparks ofers an update on the latest in the
state of Tennessee’s lawsuit against the NCAA and the status of
the NCAA’s investigation into the Vols.
