No. 17 Tennessee Volunteers (-11) vs. Virginia Tech Hokiesin Bristol, Tennessee
8:00 p.m., ABC
Last week's close call against Appalachian State has many Volunteer fans in a panic, with many around the nation labeling Tennessee overrated. I think it was the best thing to happen to the Vols -- they came in a little overconfident after reading their press clippings. App State is a veteran, underrated team. I look for a much different Volunteer squad to show up Saturday in a game they might have been looking ahead to last week. Virginia Tech is a good team, but the Hokies catch the Vols in the wrong week.
The game is at the Bristol Motor Speedway. The renovated race track is about halfway between the two schools, and it will be the largest crowd ever for a college football game, at roughly 150,000.
ATS pick: Tennessee
Score: Tennessee 34, Virginia Tech 17
