But anything can happen, and Tennessee almost found that out the hard way last year against South Carolina, when it took a late fumble recovery to save what would’ve been a terrible upset loss. The Vols should waltz through the likes of Appalachian State, Ohio, South Carolina, Kentucky, Vanderbilt and others, but one or two slip-ups could really change the narrative of the season.
