Tennessee football will play its 14th bowl game against a Big Ten team in its history when facing the Nebraska Cornhuskers in the Music City Bowl.
Ironically, it never faced an opponent from that conference in a bowl until 1979.
But since then, the Vols have faced teams from there in a variety of bowls. They include the Outback Bowl, Citrus Bowl, TaxSlayer Bowl, Liberty Bowl, Peach Bowl, and even the now-defunct Garden State Bowl and Bluebonnet Bowl.
Not only do the Vols have a tradition of playing Big Ten teams in the modern era of college football, though.
