The Vols are coming off a 9-4 (4-4 SEC) season that saw them lose to rivals Alabama, Florida and and Georgia and with a Citrus Bowl win over No. 17 Iowa.
Tennessee is returning an abundance of players along both lines of scrimmage as well as linebacker and receiver. The Vols will have an abundance of transition at running back, tight end, in the secondary and most prominently at quarterback where redshirt freshman Nico Iamaleava is stepping into the starting quarterback spot.
The 2024 college football season is the first with a 16-team SEC and a 12-team playoff. Tennessee’s schedule included a non conference matchup against North Carolina State and conference matchups with Alabama, Georgia and Oklahoma.
