We hate to say it, but the loss to Oklahoma last weekend for Tennessee football flipped the script for the 2025 campaign. With a victory, the Vols were still going to be in the College Football Playoff hunt, but that's no longer the case for Josh Heupel and his players.
Instead, the Sooners find themselves ranked No. 12 in the first CFP rankings, while Tennessee fell all the way to No. 25. There are still three games left in the season and Heupel made it clear his locker room is going to remain focused and keep competing.
