Opening odds: Tennessee a massive favorite over Kent State

The Tennessee Volunteers are flying high after a white hot start to the 2024 season. Not only do they have a budding superstar in quarterback Nico Iamaleava, but they proved to the rest of the country that you better not sleep on their defense either.

The Volunteers dismantled NC State on Saturday night in Charlotte, overwhelming the Wolfpack up front to cruise to a 51-10 win. It was a true statement win for Josh Heupel and company, showing Tennessee is more than just a spread offense and tempo.

Focus now turns to Kent State, who will come Neyland Stadium on Saturday night.
