The Tennessee Volunteers are set for the final game of the regular season Saturday night against Vanderbilt in Nashville.
While this game seemed harmless for Tennessee throughout the whole year, the Vols have been caught sliding in the last few weeks while Vanderbilt has surged with wins over Florida and Kentucky.
Tennessee still has quite a bit to play for, though. A New Year’s Six bowl is on the table with a season-closing win against the Commodores.
Vanderbilt, on the other hand, is one win away from punching their ticket to bowl season.
Here’s everything you need to know for the game between Tennessee and Vanderbilt on Saturday night.
