Tennessee gets less than perfect news during penultimate College Football Playoff rankings reveal

The Tennessee Volunteers know where they stand with the final College Football Playoff rankings just days away: one spot away from a catbird seat. And it appears they’re likely stuck there.

The second to last rankings were revealed on Tuesday night, and the Vols checked in at #7 in the rankings. Problem is, the move of conference champions into first round byes bumps the Vols down two spots in the seedings, meaning they are the 9 seed and thus must go on the road. Their destination? 8 seed Ohio State.
