A trip to the College Football Playoff is no longer within reach for No. 20 Tennessee, but the Volunteers still have plenty to play for as they head into a two-game season finale against rivalry foes.
The run begins Saturday at Florida, where Tennessee will aim for its first road victory over the Gators since 2003. They travel to take on a struggling Florida squad that has no postseason hopes this year.
For the Gators (3-7), facing Tennessee kicks off a pair of home rivalry matchups to close the season. With Tennessee this week and Florida State next, UF has a chance to end a disappointing year on a high note and restore some pride.
This matchup also carries a revenge factor for Florida after last year's heartbreaker. Tennessee's 23-17 overtime win in 2024 snapped a five-game losing streak to the Gators and set the Volunteers on a path toward the College Football Playoff. Both teams will be motivated to write a strong ending to their respective seasons.
