Tennessee Vols Week 13 Football Bowl Projection

There are two weeks left in the regular season before the Week 15 conference championship games.

Tennessee (8-2, 5-2 SEC) hosts UTEP (2-8, 2-5 C-USA) on Saturday in its final regular season home game at Neyland Stadium. Kickoff between the Vols and Miners is set for 1:00 PM EST and can be seen on SEC Network+. Lowell Galindo (play-by-play), Foz Whitaker (analyst) and Marilyn Payne (sideline reporter) will join the call.

Saturday’s Week 13 contest will also mark senior day for the Vols.

“Everybody keeps asking me if I’m excited or ready, and I don’t really know how to feel,” Tennessee senior tight end Miles Kitselman said of Saturday’s game. “I’m definitely sad. I don’t think the emotions have really hit me yet. I wish I had a lot more time here in Knoxville, it’s a great place. I think I’ve enjoyed my time here a lot. I’m just really excited to go out there and play in Neyland. Hopefully not for the last time, but I’m just really excited.”

Prior to the Tennessee-UTEP game, updated college football bowl projections were released. USA TODAY projects the Vols to play Illinois in the Citrus Bowl on Dec. 31.
