Should Tennessee be No. 1 in first batch of College Football Playoff rankings?

Tennessee just flat out continues to answer the call. Every “trap” or “look-ahead game” has been taken care of with ease, and Josh Heupel’s Volunteers find themselves at 8-0.

It’s almost unbelievable at this point.

The Vols crushed No. 19 Kentucky 44-6 on Saturday night, picking up their fifth ranked win of the 2022 season. They’ll have their shot at their sixth next week, on the road at No. 1 Georgia. But let’s forget about that for just a couple of minutes.

The first batch of the College Football Playoff rankings come out on Tuesday night.
