Here is the official preview for the Tennessee vs Ohio game, including TV info, streaming, and kickoff time for the Volunteers and Bobcats.

Tennessee vs Ohio is a game that features two teams with bright outlooks for the season but who have had slow starts.

The Vols have moved to 2-0 on the year after blowing out the Virginia Tech Hokies in the Battle at Bristol last week, mostly thanks to five turnovers by the opposition.

Meanwhile, the bobcats got back on track with an impressive win over the Kansas Jayhawks last week following a disappointing opening loss to the Texas State Bobcats.

Here is all the information you need to know about the Tennessee vs Ohio match-up.

Ohio Bobcats at No. 15 Tennessee Volunteers

When: Saturday, Sept. 17 at Noon

Where: Neyland Stadium, Knoxville, Tenn.

TV: SEC Network

Live Stream: Watch ESPN

Line: Tennessee -27

Over/Under: 57.5

Led by Frank Solich, the Ohio Bobcats are a dangerous team with Greg Windham at quarterback and a plethora of talented backfield players on offense. They are the third straight Tennessee opponent to base their offense on misdirection plays.

At the same time, the Vols are without linebacker Darrin Kirkland Jr., which could make defending those plays very difficult.

On defense, Ohio is the third straight experienced front seven that Tennessee is facing. However, their secondary is incredibly weak.

Tennessee’s only problem will be trying to give Joshua Dobbs time to get the ball off. The Vols have had atrocious offensive line play to this point.

As a result, Mike DeBord had to shift the rotation last week. Tennessee is looking to get to 3-0 before the brutal stretch of their schedule begins next week.

However, they can’t have a lack of focus against the Bobcats. Otherwise, it could turn out like the Appalachian State game two weeks ago.
