Tennessee gets a breather before opening SEC play against the Florida Gators next weekend in Neyland Stadium. At the podium on Thursday, Josh Heupel was not interested in looking ahead, even seeming slightly annoyed at the thought. After last week’s upsets, you understand why.
Still, Tennessee is favored by nearly 50 points, per DraftKings Sportsbook. Akron is one of the worst teams at the FBS level, and Joe Moorhead has quite the task in front of him. The Volunteers are going to roll here, and Saturday is another opportunity to build depth and see what you’ve got on the roster.
