Pyromania1983	12	I consistently had Tennessee a few spots above where they have actually been ranked every single week of the season so far, and that continues this week. Ranked 14th in the AP poll, the Vols finished this set of non-conference games with a massive 42-9 win over Kennesaw State. The offense put up almost 500 yards, and put this game out of reach very early on. They get their first real test of 2026 with a Week 4 matchup against number 1 Texas.

Doogitywoogity	20	The easy part of the schedule is over, now the Vols get to start playing real opponents, starting with *checks notes* the number one ranked texas longhorns. Well, no one’s in the SEC to win easy games and Tennessee should hope they’ve had enough tune up time to get this young qb ready. Good news is it’s at home.

d1sportsball	12	Tennessee is looking great to start the season despite their starting of a true freshman quarterback. The run game is elite, which has allowed Faizon Brandon to pass without much pressure. However, this week they host Texas on college gameday, so this ranking will be put to the test against another team looking to reaffirm their ranking.
