YellowSkarmory 2 Well, Tennessee is back at #2 for me. A win at LSU in dominant fashion is solid, and is their third win over a 4-2 team, with them also having wins at Pitt in OT and home against Florida. A home game against Alabama next week is interesting, and I think Tennessee actually has a good shot there.

T-Thugs 3 Tennessee is 6-0. They have solid wins over Florida (4-2), LSU (4-2) and Pittsburgh (4-2). They have a game against Alabama next week and a win could push them to the top of my rankings.

Meany_Vizzini 5 24.5, +8.6, +13, 31.8 (2nd), 18.1 (8th). The Vols are pinballing in these rankings from week to week. The model loves LSU from the Mississippi State win, so Tennessee’s dominating win sees them back in the top 5 for the third time this year.

nw____ 5 Fantastic performance ON THE ROAD in BATON ROUGE. Absolutely smoked an LSU team that is a top-half SEC team (at least to this point). I wasn't sure that a Heupel-led team had it in them. I can't wait to see next week's game against Bama. We may be able to hear "GOOOOOD OLD ROCKY TOP, WOO!" in neighboring states. They'll have as good a chance as they've had in some time to knock off Bama and show they are *for real* for real.

bretticus33 6 Tennessee is surging under Josh Heupel and their confidence has to be sky-high. Another big win, this time in LSU’s Death Valley, and they should be an interesting matchup against a shaky Alabama. Hooker has an opportunity to really solidify his Heisman candidacy.

MWiatrak2077 6 August 31st, 2019. 89°F, 3:20 PM. In every great historical upset, in every David v. Goliath, it's not a tale of upmost domination, but rather of grit, skill, hardwork, & overcoming adversity. App State defeats #5 Michigan off a blocked FG to win, 34-32. Stanford converts a 4th & 20 to upset the #1 USC, 24-23. That is not what happened on August 31st, 2019. Tennessee starts their season off as 25pt favorites vs. a Georgia State team that had gone 2-10 the year prior. There was no uphill battle, there was no overcoming adversity, there was only a battering, a humiliation, a beatdown of the Vols, as Georgia State found themselves up 38-23 with just :02 on the clock, before Tennessee hit a useless TD to nail in the final score, 38-30. Fast forward to October 8th, 2022: Tennessee, off to a blazing 4-0 start, which includes the 2nd ranked scoring offense, walks into Death Valley to face the #25 4-1 LSU Tigers. What happened next could only be described as a mauling, as the Volunteers of Tennessee routed LSU in a 40-13 victory, which included a 23-7 halftime score. QB Hendon Hooker had two TDs on the day, RB Jabari Small ran for 127 yards and two scores himself, as Tennessee nailed in 502 yards of offense. Here the mighty Volunteers stand: 5-0, - #8 in the Coaches, #6 in the AP, #6 in /u/MWiatrak2077's /r/CFB Poll, - as they prepare to face the Crimson Tide at home, in an undefeated, top-10 matchup. How far they have come, how far they will go. Tennessee isn't without their issues, allowing 8.4 penalties per game, and with a defense allowing 397 yards per game, - but, to see their rise from the ashes, it's good to see. It's hard to predict the future, but even with losses to Alabama/Georgia, ESPN's FPI gives Tennessee a 59% chance of winning all other games on their slate, - a solid 10-2 record that would surely leave the Vols NY6 bound. As someone who intensely hated the Pruitt firing, major credit to Josh Heupel (whose wikipedia photo really should be changed, - google it) for what he has built in just two years, - and credit to Offensive Coordinator Alex Golesh for modernizing the Tennessee offense with new spread concepts, allowing them to be one of the highest scoring teams in the nation, and highest in the SEC. With Alabama star QB Bryce Young potentially still out this upcoming Saturday, there has never been a better time for the men in orange to break a 14-year cloud of agony, right over Alabama's heads.

Yelich04 2 +2. They blew the doors off of LSU, who feel like frauds, but only had one very close loss and a good win to Miss State coming into the game. Tennessee has quality wins against Pitt and Florida too, who are not as good as everyone thought previously, but are not bad teams to say the least. They have given me more reasons to believe in them, especially recently, than the two teams I had them jump.

Due_Connection179 7 Last week #9 won at LSU 40-13. I didn't have LSU ranked last week and that's because I don't think they are that good. Tennessee dominated LSU from start-to-finish to set up their biggest game since the Peyton Manning-era. Next week: vs #1 Alabama
dusklord1 7 LSU was probably overranked because of their win against a Miss State team that inexplicably underperformed for reasons, but dominating @ LSU is not an easy task regardless. Their game vs Bama seems winnable, but will be a tall task if Bryce Young is back, as he seems to be worth multiple touchdowns in comparison to Milroe.
