KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – Tennessee’s 10-game conference only season opens on the road at South Carolina on Sept. 26 before returning to Neyland Stadium for its home opener on Oct. 3 against Missouri. Following an Oct. 10 road tilt at No. 4 Georgia, the Vols return home to host Kentucky (Oct. 17) and No. 3 Alabama (Oct. 24) in back-to-back weeks.

Three of the final four games of the year come against top-15 ranked opponents beginning with No. 13 Texas A&M on Nov. 14 in Knoxville. Back-to-back road trips at No. 11 Auburn (Nov. 21) and at Vanderbilt (Nov. 28) lead up to a Dec. 5 showdown against No. 8 Florida in Neyland Stadium.
