Tennessee football faces the Georgia Bulldogs at Neyland Stadium Saturday. Here is the Volunteers’ streaming, game time, and television information.
After an ugly win against the UMass Minutemen, which came on the heels of a fluke loss to a bad Florida Gators team, Tennessee football is looking for a rebound this weekend. Unfortunately for the Vols, it comes against the Georgia Bulldogs.
Georgia is red-hot right now with its 4-0 record under Kirby Smart. Two of those wins have come against Top 25 teams, one of which was against the Notre Dame Fighting Irish on the road. Despite the injury to Jacob Eason, Jake Fromm has stepped in and had no problem filling in for the Dawgs at quarterback.
Now, Georgia is think College Football Playoff. Tennessee is just praying that it is a competent team in Jones’s fifth season as head coach of the program.
Here is all the information you need for this game.

Currently, despite all the negative talk, Tennessee football is 3-1 on the year. But they are 0-1 in the SEC and need Florida to lose twice to have a shot at the East. That looks less likely after their loss to the Kentucky Wildcats last week.
However, this game has a history of going down to the wire. The last six matches between these two teams has been decided by one possession. And the last two have come down to the last play.
So despite where the Vols stand right now, they could still pose a threat to the Dawgs. This is the game that has turned around their season in the past as well. Just look at the 2015 team.
And anything can happen here. So if Tennessee football pulls this one out, they’re back on track. If Georgia wins, they’re in better shape than ever.
Both teams desperately need this win to validate where they want to be at this stage. The loss will be devastating either way. And that makes for a great CBS Showdown between these two yearly SEC rivals.
