The Iron Bowl will decide the SEC West champion, with the winner facing Georgia for the conference title and a spot in the College Football Playoff.
The Tennessee-Vanderbilt game? Let’s just say that the stakes aren’t as high.
The games kick off around the same time (about 3:40 ET in Auburn, 4 ET in Knoxville). Yeah, I don’t expect the TV ratings to be that high for the Vols and Commodores.
Tennessee and Vanderbilt are both 4-7, and the two worst teams in the SEC. They are a combined 0-14 in SEC play.
The Vols are trying to keep away from that eighth loss.
